Tony was a vivacious little boy, who had a flair for life, a love of music, and couldn’t have enough toys. He spent the last eight months living with his great grandparents inside a hospital room at UCSF, yet his smile, and love for life never wavered.
Tony is survived by his parents, Erasmo Chavez and Cassaundra Doige of Manteca; grandparents, Tammara Gonzalez of Lancaster, Erasmo Chavez Sr. and Maria Chavez of Tracy; great grandparents, Janet and William T Clark Jr. of Modesto; great great grandparents, Barbara and Don Hastie of Modesto and Ann and William T. Clark Sr. of Paradise; and a large extended family. Anthony’s family would like to express their gratitude to their extended family at UCSF Children’s Hospital.
