November 17, 1930 - March 9, 2019

It is with great sadness that the family of Bernabe “Tito” Avila announces his passing on March 9th, 2019.

Bernabe was born and grew up in the Los Angeles area. He had lived in Downey since 1970. Prior to his retirement, he worked at the Firestone Tire & Rubber Company for 30 years.

He will be lovingly remembered by his wife of 70 years, Raquel, his children Frances (Eric); Rebecca; and Daniel (Linda), his grandchildren David (Lauren) and Jonathan; and his great-grandsons Christopher, David, and Eli.

In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to your favorite charity.
