My greatest memory of my godfather was his personality. He had a personality that was very big and tough just like he was. He also had very specific interests and a style that nobody can take away from him. He also enjoyed sharing those interests with his grandchildren and with myself. As you can see in the photo, he enjoyed having us all wear his favorite soccer teams uniform. He will forever be in our hearts and memories. 
Mi memoria mas grande de mi nino era su personalidad. Tenia una personalidad grande y fuerte como el. Tenia gustos y estilo que nadie le podia quitar. Y tambien le gustaba compartir esos gustos con sus nietos y con migo. Si ve en la photo como nos traia vestidos con uniforme de su equipo favorito. Siempre estara en nuestros corazones y memorias. 

I have many memories with my grandpa but the most memorable one would be going to his auto body shop every day after school from elementary to high school. I remember I hated going to his shop and waiting 4 hours for my mom to pick up my brothers and I. Now I look back and Im grateful for that time i spent with my grandparents. Growing up I watched grandpa work his butt off and it never stopped there. He has always been a tough, stubborn, loving and hard working man. He never gave up and always worked hard for what he wanted. That's something he taught us and a little something that everyone will always remember about him. I miss you everyday grandpa, some days more than others.

Jose Guillermo Ceja passed away on September 24, 2019 at 75, due to his 2nd stroke.   He was surrounded by his family as he took his last breath.    He was born December 23, 1943 in La Sauceda, Michoacán, Mexico.   Jose’s father died when he was months old, so the difficult life with a single mother and a tough step-father created a desire to overcome poverty and wanted so much more for him and his siblings.   Jose knew something more awaited him and embarked as a teenager in the early 1960’s to the United States for work and opportunity.    He would travel frequently over the years to the U.S.A to send money back home to his mother.   He always made sure he returned home.   On July 21, 1968 he married Teresa Alvarez Diaz.  Within days the newlyweds were off to the U.S.A    He was humble, but a man’s man that was going to provide for his new wife, but also his family back in Mexico.   Jose worked hard to create a better life.   He began working at Borg Warner with Fiberglass products. He embraced it and started his own business in fiberglass fabrication, autobody repairs, sporting goods and President of a soccer league. He enjoyed as past time.
The U.S.A to him was an untapped source of opportunity and he wanted to make sure his family and friends were part of it.  He started to help so many people by bringing them to US and he loved helping, no matter the burdens that came along with it.
He wanted more for all those he touched.  Family was so important to him.   He was stubborn, he was tough, he took risks, but the love of his family was his core.   He became the anchor of the family.   A strong, heavy object attached to family.   He was always the person that will do his best to help you succeed.
He will be remembered as a loving husband, father, grandfather, family member and friend.   He leaves behind to cherish his memory; His wife Teresa Ceja, His children: William, Maria, Elisabeth, Teresa and Danny.  His Grand Children:

Entre ellas su mas grande prioridad era formar un hermoso ramillete de hijos al lado de su gran amor. El amor que un dia Dios los unio y asi delante de Dios se declararon, hasta que la muerte los separe. Fueron 51 años de vida juntos.

My most sincere sympathy for you all. May my Uncle Rest In Peace. He will truly be missed and remembered always. I will forever remember all the barbecues at the park. Love you all! Xoxo

Mi más sentido pésame Tia. Que Dios le dé fortaleza a todos ustedes. La queremos mucho! 

My Father was a good hard-working man.  He was tough but never heartless and always caring.   He always helped everyone, relatives and friends.

He once told me that I was his "Tiger"and I asked him, Why, what do you mean? He replied, "I want you to be smart, hard-working, and not stupid like me."

I think my father was everything and he accomplished and achieved more than I and anyone I know.  I am beyond proud of him and I wanted him to know that he was my Tiger.

I will miss you dad and I will never forget you the life lessons you taught me.  Your legacy will forever live in my heart and through my children.  I love you dad. You will be missed but never forgotten.




My dad was hard working and disciplined. He was my teacher and guide. I looked up to him for his advice and guidance.  He taught me with much love and patience.  My dad was a loving and kind person. He was very soft-hearted but firm at the same time. He was ready to help anyone who may stand in need of his help at any time in whatever way he can, with no expectations.
I learned a great deal from my dad.  I am grateful to him for everything he did for me and all that he taught me. 

Dad-I want to thank you  for every time you kissed, hugged, or complimented mom, my siblings, and I even before my brain was storing memories....for every single one of those moments is locked in my mind and my heart forever.
I give you my word that I will fearlessly chase my wildest dreams. I will let my light always shine bright. I will never give up and I will never back down from what I believe in. I will do the right things for the right reasons and I will treasure my time on this earth. I know you wouldn’t have it any other way.
 
This is not a goodbye but see you later. I love you so much and will miss you. 

Love always your daughter, 
Teresa Toledo-Ceja
