Nicky "Nick" Lee Rinaldi

Nick Rinaldi passed from this life peacefully on November 24, 2021. He is preceded in death by his beloved parents, Anthony P. Rinaldi I and Joan Goddard Rinaldi as well as his Sister in Law, Linda Rinaldi. He is survived by his children: daughter Sloan Rinaldi of Houston, TX, son Anthony P. Rinaldi II of Corona Del Mar, CA, daughter Marti Rey Rinaldi of San Antonio, TX, and son Dominic J. Rinaldi of Austin, TX; a sister Toni Rosen and brother Toby Rinaldi; grandchildren: Christian Wunderlich, Cory Wunderlich, Seth Rinaldi, Micaela Rinaldi, Jonah Rinaldi and Isabella Rinaldi as well as great grandchildren, nieces and nephews. Finally, Nick leaves behind his beloved life partner, Lisa Nuttall Munoz.

Nick was born and raised in Canton, Ohio where he graduated from Perry High School. After Graduation, he headed to the Great State of Texas and never looked back. Nick began his career in the automotive industry in Houston, Texas and his work ultimately took him to Fredericksburg, Texas. Finally, Nick made his way to San Antonio where he launched a successful career in Real Estate and made his home there permanently.

Nick was a charismatic man, and made friends wherever he went. He was generous with his time and willing to help anyone that needed him; seeing others succeed brought him his greatest joy.

Nick’s home was open to anyone, whether to share a meal, a heart-to-heart talk, advice or a good laugh. He was a chameleon and became who one needed at that particular moment. He was a friend.

Nick challenged us, assisted us when needed, advised us when asked and showed us how to live by setting an example, always encouraging us to do better, and to be our best. He was a straight forward guy while possessing a compassionate heart and spirit. Nick’s children, grandchildren, nieces and nephew, along with his brother and sister, counted on him for wise counsel and sage advice.

Nick lived every moment to its fullest; his joy of life was infectious. He loved his family and friends with his whole heart; no one ever questioned or doubted his love for them. Nothing was left unsaid.

Nick will be greatly missed by all those that knew him. His zest for life and pursuit of adventure will live on in all of us.

We will celebrate the life of Nick Rinaldi on December 12, 2021 beginning at 3:00 PM at Western Sky Event Center in Bulverde, Texas.
