Andy Carrillo (also known as the Original Budha and Lovebug), 50, was born in Los Angeles on March 5, 1964 to parents Andrew and Rachel Carrillo. The eldest brother of three younger sisters (Susie, Theresa, and Sandra) Andy was always “more than just a sibling,” he was like a second father to everyone from his sisters to his nieces and nephews and even to all the friends of his daughters.
The summer he graduated from Wilson high school in 1982, he fell in love with his wife-to-be Theresa Padilla. They married in 1988 and were married 26 years. They had 4 beautiful daughters. Danielle (which Andy is now with in heaven), Cherish 19 years old, Lauren 18 years old, and Nichole 14 years old. Andy worked for UPS for 25 years.
His hobbies included coaching (especially his daughters), fishing (especially teaching everyone how to fish), collecting hot wheels and baseball cards. His favorite foods were pork and noodles. But he is most known for being a great cook and never sharing his secret BBQ sauce. His motto was to never give up and he encouraged his daughters Cherish, Lauren and Nichole to always follow their dreams.
The Rosary/Vigil/Viewing will take place Friday August 8th at St. Anthony’s in San Gabriel at 7pm. The Funeral Mass will be on Saturday August 9th at St. Anthony’s at 8:45am, followed by a reception. Interment will be at Resurrection Cemetery.
