Tony was born on June 13, 1954, in La Purisima, Tepehuanes – Durango, Mexico to Arnulfa and Jose Carrera. He came to the United States as a young man, and eventually settled in Waukesha to raise his children. Everyone who knew him could see and feel his sincerity and strong spirit. He led by example, always willing to lend a hand. He loved his family fiercely – “grampy” could often be found taking a walk with his grandchildren, pointing out the beauty of nature. Tony was a lover of all sports, he truly loved to watch the Brewers and the Bucks and you could find him every Sunday with his packer apparel watching the game – cheering on his favorite team.
