Everyone who was lucky enough to know Joe Amador, already knows that he was one of the most genuine men the world has to offer. He was the kind of guy who made friends everywhere he went and he was always going somewhere. From classic cars to mineral collecting, Joe's interests were as diverse as he was. No matter what Joe was doing or where he was going, he always brought his encyclopedic knowledge of trivia and his unrestrained sense of humor.

Born and raised in Antioch, Ca., Joe is survived by his mother, Mary Amador, his siblings, Tamee (James) Lane and Santos Amador, and an abundance of family and friends. With Joe's passing, came his reunion with his father, Nick Amador, and his grandparents, Millie and Horace "Red" Lucido and Guadalupe and Pantaleon Amador.

All loved ones are welcome to attend a memorial service with a celebration of life immediately following. Date and time have yet to be decided.

Graveside service will be held on Friday, April 1, 2022 at 11:00am at Holy Cross Cemetery in Antioch. Celebration of life will follow at 12:00noon at VFW Hall in Antioch.
