With great sadness, we share with all of you the passing of Anthony "Tony" Gonzales.

It is heartbreaking for the family at this time, and we want to do all we can to support

them through this tough time.

Tony will continue to live on in the hearts of his beautiful Family. His Mom, Wife Mary and all his children, Christian, Michelle, Timmy, David, Chelsea, Brian, Briana, Mikie, Stephany, and his youngest son, Cruz ( who just turned ten years old a few days after his Daddy passed away). Including his little pride and joy, Grandbaby Rylee.

He was a long-time member of AMA and the Moto Community. He enjoyed racing and especially training and racing his Son Cruz for District 37, Youth Desert.

They recently began training other kids at their Camp Gonzales Compound. He had this unique ability to excite, encourage, build and develop confidence in each rider. He could take them from rolling a hill to clearing it in one day. His patience, kindness and enthusiasm were immeasurable.

There was no denying his passion for the sport, and he was definitely one of those Dads you could sometimes hear a mile away making sure that when Cruz and his friends were racing, they were safe and taken care of from start to finish.

Over the years, he always strived to overcome any obstacle, no matter how hard. He loved his family to the moon and back and was loved very much by those close to him.

His Wife and youngest son are left to take on more than they are used to, besides adjusting to the overwhelming enormity of losing a Husband and Father.

We are wrapping our arms around them at this time and asking everyone to keep them in your prayers and thoughts and to help support them in any way we can.

You can make donations here on Go Fund Me, provide a private direct donation or sharing this link would also be a blessing. All donations go straight to the Family and will help them tremendously.

They are grateful for all the love, support and kindness everyone has shown them.

A Celebration of Life will be planned once the Family has had time to be with one another.

An update will be posted here and on their Social Media @campgonzalesracing and at

@campgonzales409.

Until then, we have included the address to send any other donations, kind words, and flowers to the Family.
