Tony Gomez

April 22, 1966 – August 21, 2026

Tony Gomez, age 60, of Omaha, Nebraska, passed away on August 21, 2026 surrounded by family, friends and his partner in crime, Koda Mae their family mastiff.

Born on April 22, 1966, to Antonio and Mary Gomez, Tony lived a life filled with family, hard work, laughter, challenges, and memories that will forever remain with those who knew and loved him.

Tony was a hardworking man who took pride in what he did. He spent nearly 20 years at Jensen Tire, where he became one of their top technicians. His knowledge, skills, and dedication to his work were something he could be proud of. After leaving Jensen Tire, Tony continued his career at Inland Truck Parts, where he worked for another 11 years. Between the two companies, Tony dedicated more than three decades of his life to a trade that required hard work, patience, and knowing how to figure things out when something wasn't working the way it should.

When he wasn't working, Tony enjoyed the things that gave him a chance to get outdoors and spend time with the people he loved. He had a love for horses and enjoyed working and riding them, but he also loved the freedom of being out on his motorcycle. Some of his favorite times were the rides he shared with Jeannetta, often joined by his son Powell and daughter-in-law Adrianna. Whether they had a destination in mind or were simply enjoying the open road, those rides became memories they would always treasure. Camping trips were another way Tony enjoyed getting away from the everyday routine and spending time with family, making memories that would last long after the trips were over.

Tony also knew how to have fun, even when the odds weren't exactly in his favor. He spent plenty of time getting beat by his children at Call of Duty and getting shot up during paintball matches with his friends and kids. Those moments were filled with competition, laughter, and a little trash talk, but more than anything, they were about spending time together and making memories.

As much as Tony enjoyed being outdoors and having fun with family and friends, some of the moments that meant the most to him were spent watching his children and grandchildren do the things they loved. Whether it was soccer, softball, baseball, football, dance, marching band, winter guard, or music concerts, Tony enjoyed being there to watch them play, perform, and grow. From ball fields and football stands to concert halls and gymnasiums, he treasured the opportunity to cheer them on and share in their accomplishments. It wasn't about winning games or bringing home awards. It was about being there and watching the people he loved do what made them happy.

Tony was a beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend. Above all, he was the love of Jeannetta's life, and together they built a family and a life filled with love, memories, and stories that will live on.

Tony's greatest legacy is the family he leaves behind. He shared his life with the love of his life, Jeannetta, and was a father to Breanna, Landen, Jessica, Powell (Adrianna), Jacob (Laura), and Dillon (Nicole). His family also included Sheilah (Mason) Koehn, Jeannetta's daughter, who held her own special place in their lives.

Tony's family continued to grow through eight grandchildren, Lantz, Jordyn, Rayne, Zoey, Luna, Carmine, Colton, and Weston, each a special part of the family and the memories they shared.

Tony was preceded in death by his parents, Antonio and Mary Gomez; his sister, Melody Ann; and his nephews, Nicholas and Cameron.

He leaves behind his siblings, Starlet (Max Zaragosa), Anita Theresa (John Olsen), Gayle (Dave Swanson), Melanie (Randy Moreno), Brian Gomez, and Yvette (Zach Berton), along with extended family, friends, and many others whose lives crossed paths with his.

The final years of Tony's life brought challenges that no one could have prepared for. He faced cancer, strokes, and a long road of rehabilitation, with setbacks that tested both his strength and the strength of those who loved him. Through it all, his family continued to stand beside him, hoping, praying, and fighting for more time together.

But Tony's life was never defined by his illness or the battles he faced in his final years.

He was a man who spent decades working hard, building a life, raising a family, and making memories. Like anyone, Tony had his good days and his bad days, his successes and his struggles. He wasn't perfect, and life wasn't always easy, but those moments were all part of what made him Tony.

Those who knew him will remember the stories, the laughter, the stubborn moments, the hard work, and the everyday memories that often mean the most once someone is gone.

Tony leaves behind more than an empty place at the table. He leaves behind a lifetime of memories, a family that will forever carry pieces of him, and a love that does not end simply because his life did.

His children will carry pieces of him forward. His grandchildren will carry his memory into the future. His siblings will carry the memories of the brother they grew up with. And Jeannetta will forever carry the love, memories, and life they built together.

Though Tony's time here has ended, his story continues through the people who loved him, the memories they share, and the lives he touched along the way.

Tony will be deeply missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.

Rest easy, Tony. Your fight is over. Your memory lives on.
