Arthur Villareal Sr
January 6, 1949 -February 10, 2018

Art Villareal Sr was born in Los Angeles, California on January 6, 1949.  He lived in El Sereno, and was drafted in 1969 and went off to war in Vietnam.  Art returned home in 1970.   

For 40 years Art was a roofer.  He enjoyed his job and talked of it often.  After retiring from roofing he moved to the Hemet area where he met his best friend, Duke, and they started a car club together called "Drifting on a Memory".  Art had an extreme amount of passion for his car club and helping other people less fortunate than himself and helping the younger generations to keep them on a good path so that they didn't end up in a dead-end life.   Everyone who knew Art loved him and he didn't have an enemy in the world.


He is survived by his mother, Lupe Villareal, his son, Arthur Villareal Jr, his daughter, Melinda Villareal, his grandchildren, Syrena, Lily & Tatiana and his partner in life, Tracy.
