Jose Manuel Munguia

He was born in Tecoman, Colima in Mexico on December 24, 1959.

Jose was a man who pursued his dreams with unwavering determination, never allowing obstacles to stand in his way. At just 18 years old, he embarked on a journey to America in search of the American dream. Through resilience and hard work, he built a life defined by passion—for his family, community, and entrepreneurial pursuits.

Beyond his dedication to work, Jose found joy in hunting, cooking, traveling, and sports, especially his beloved Dallas Cowboys. Every day, he worked tirelessly to overcome challenges, mastering a new language and navigating the complexities and challenges of being an immigrant. His perseverance led him to achieve remarkable milestones, including becoming a U.S. citizen, a homeowner, and a successful small business owner. For over 30 years, he led his own company with integrity and diligence.

After reaching his own dreams, Jose remained deeply committed to helping others in need, often sharing his successes with family and friends to uplift those around him. His infectious laughter, quick wit, and warm hearted nature left an enduring mark on everyone he met. Friends and loved ones will fondly remember his kindness, fairness, and ability to find joy in any situation.

Jose’s presence will be profoundly missed, but his legacy of generosity, strength, and love will continue to inspire all who knew him.

He is survived by his son Noe, wife Maria and stepdaughter Samantha, sister Marie and brother Ramon.
