Antonio Cortez Uribe, born on September 28, 1941, in Sayulapa Municipio de Zacualco de Torres Jalisco, Mexico, passed away peacefully on January 26, 2026, in Highland Park, California. He dedicated over 35 years of his life to his role as a foreman at Pervo Paint, where he was revered for his commitment and work ethic.
Antonio's life was richly woven with memories of laughter and love. His family recalls his humor, as he was often the life of any gathering, always ready to share a joke or a story. He had a deep passion for food, frequently suggesting outings to Tommy’s or In N Out, though his true favorite was savoring a carne asada. Above all, Antonio cherished his family, embodying the roles of husband, father, and grandfather with unwavering devotion.
He is lovingly remembered by his wife of 51 years, Bertha, and their four children: Maribel, Wendy, Antonio Jr., and Angie. Antonio found immense joy in being a grandfather to Mardy, Marcus, Marlisa, Cruz Jr., Antonio III, Alyna, and Temoc, who all will fondly remember his warmth and guidance.
Antonio Cortez leaves behind a legacy of hard work, love, and laughter that will endure in the hearts of those who knew him. His family invites all who wish to pay their respects to gather for a funeral service on February 11, 2026, at 5:00 PM, and again on February 12, 2026, at 9:00 AM, both to be held at Forest Lawn - Glendale - Church of the Recessional, located at 1712 South Glendale Avenue, Glendale, CA 91205.
His spirit will forever remain a guiding light and source of inspiration to all who were fortunate enough to cross paths with him.
