Vince Alvarado

Vince T. Alvarado, beloved husband, father, son, and uncle, passed away too soon on May 22, 2025, at the age of 56 in San Jacinto, California.

Born in Torrance, California, Vince built a life filled with devotion to family, hard work, and a passion for the things that made him feel alive. A proud Cement Mason by trade, Vince was no stranger to dedication and craftsmanship. Whether laying foundations or building memories, he put his heart into everything he did.

But above all, his true pride and purpose was his family. Vince is survived by his loving wife, Kathy, and their children—Veronica, Vince, Kaitlin, Dylan, and Adriana—each of whom he cherished deeply. He is also survived by his devoted mother, Prestinia; his brother, Anthony Alvarado, and sister-in-law Roxie; his niece Daisy and nephew Anthony Jr.; and a large and close-knit extended family including Richard, Vincent, Vanessa, Santana, Johnny, Joey, Sabrina, Alexandra, and Matthew.

Vince was preceded in death by his father, Vince Alvarado; his brother, Richie; and his sister, Laura.

Their memories remained close to his heart, and now they are reunited in heaven.

Vince had a spirit that embraced both adventure and wonder. He loved riding his Harley Davidson motorcycle and working on lowrider cars, always with an eye for detail and style. He found joy and mystery in watching alien documentaries and spent quiet moments gazing at the stars.

Those who knew him best will remember a man who lived with heart, who made time for those he loved, and who placed his family above all else. His absence leaves a space that can never be filled, but his memory will live on in every story shared, every ride taken, and every night spent looking up at the sky.

A viewing will be held on Wednesday, June 11, 2025, from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at Ballard Funeral Home. Services will continue from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. Graveside services will be held on Friday, June 13, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., at South Park Cemetery. Family and friends are invited to honor his life and say their goodbyes.

Vince will never be forgotten. His legacy of love, loyalty, and laughter lives on in every life he touched.
