Obituary

Candelario F. Del Toro 2/2/1947 - 9/19/2014 Candelario F. Del Toro of San Antonio passed away on September 19, 2014 at University Hospital at the age of 67 surrounded by his loving family. He was born on February 2, 1947 in San Antonio, Texas to Luis and Salome Del Toro Sr. "Candy" was a caring, loving man who touched many lives. He always lived his life to the fullest and cared deeply for all his family and friends. He was a carpenter by trade but also loved his sports and music. He loved to sing and play his guitar and accordion. He possessed a great smile you could not miss and had a number of stories or sayings that could always put a smile on your face as well. As family and friends would know, he never asked for much except for maybe that you should bring a six pack of beer when coming to visit him. He was so full of character and so full of life. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. May he be remembered and live on through the lasting memories he leaves behind and within the smiles we hope he continues to bring to everyone's faces through those everlasting memories. He is survived by his daughter Lucy Egan and husband Ron; his son Luis Del Toro and his wife Leslie; three sisters; Elvira Garcia of San Antonio, Texas; Eliza Paleo of Dallas, Texas; and Julia Longoria of San Antonio, Texas; four grandchildren; Alixandria Arellano and husband Stephen living in Omaha, NE, Foster James Del Toro and Parker Luis Del Toro of Dubuque, IA and Drew Del Toro Colvett currently living in Mt. Pleasant, TN; his ex-wife whom he was married to for over 20 years Maria Dolores Del Toro and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents Salome and Luis; four sisters; Emiteria Ortega, Isabel Van Raub; Guadalupe Levery; and Pilar Gaeta; four brothers; Armando, Federico, Juan Del Toro and Luis Del Toro Jr. A rosary will be held on Wednesday September, 24, 2014 at 7:00 PM at Southside Funeral Home.
