Jose A. Chavarria December 29, 1947 – October 20, 2025 Jose A. Chavarria passed away surrounded by his loving family at his home in San Antonio, Texas, on October 20, 2025, at the age of 77. Born on December 29, 1947, in San Antonio, Jose lived a life defined by dedication—to his work, to his loved ones, and to his community. He proudly served the City of San Antonio as a Senior Equipment Operator in the Street Maintenance and Storm Water Operations division, retiring after many years of faithful service. His commitment helped shape and improve the city he called home. In addition to his professional career, Jose was a devoted member of the Knights of Columbus, Council #7256, where he lived out his faith through fellowship, charity, and service. His involvement with the Knights was a source of pride and purpose, and he leaves behind a legacy of quiet leadership and spiritual strength. Jose was a devoted husband, a proud father, and a beloved grandfather and great-grandfather. He found joy in the simple things: family gatherings, time spent with his grandchildren, and the quiet satisfaction of a job well done. Those who knew him will remember his steady presence, warm heart, and quiet wisdom. He is survived by his loving wife, Ninfa M. Chavarria; his sons Joe A. Chavarria (Lisa Mendez), Edward Chavarria, and Jerry Chavarria (Brandy Chavarria); his grandchildren Jacob Joel Chavarria, Naiomi X. Chavarria, Zachary Chavarria, Edward Chavarria Jr., Andrew Chavarria, Ilyanna Tobias, Christian Chavarria, Alexander Chavarria, Brianna Chavarria, Alissa Chavarria and Humberto Chavarria; his great-grandchildren Juliet Mendoza, Ethan Mendoza, Camila Chavarria, Vicente Chavarria, Elena Chavarria, Kiyair Chavarria, Osiaha Chavarria and Adelina Mascorro; his brother Gerardo Chavarria; his sister Teresa Neil; and many other beloved family members and friends. Jose was preceded in death by his parents, Jose Deleon Chavarria and Juanita Farias Chavarria. Jose A. Chavarria will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered. May he rest in eternal peace.
