Juanito,

So many memories of you. From forming and building NELA Little League,  talking about baseball strategies, all your championships and the road to Williamsport.  

You would check in with us every few of months, the last being just a couple months ago.  You'd ring the bell and yell out, "Hey Joe Molinian!" and start laughing.  You were a good friend, coach and mentor to sooo many kids from the community. You made a difference in so many lives; from  baseball kids, to friends, and of course, to your beloved family.   Thanks for the memories.   Be proud, you did well.  You will be sorely missed, Juanito.  

R.I.P Old friend,I hope there's a Little League in heaven
I will know where to find you when it's my time!


"Coach Juanito"....Thank you for welcoming my family to the  NELA family and your mentoring throughout the years. We will cherish all the fun memories at the park, sharing stories, funny jokes and watching games with the special "coozies."
See you on the other side.💙

I will always remember  the trips to the mountains , liquor store (for candy), ball parks and so many other adventures you took my sisters and I on. You were good to our family. You have left so many memories in my heart, I will never forget you. 

Juan had a great heart and soul. He left an impression on everyone he came across. Juan was a noble man. He served his community well by coaching sports and mentoring at risk youth. His death is a huge loss to everyone especially his children and grandchildren, Maria, and our family. Juan you will remain in our hearts and love you forever.

My brothers and I having a good time with the coach at NELA

Juanito, was my homeboy for over 40 years, one of my earliest memory was  in the late 1970's we worked a summer job together,  he would pick me up in his vw and we would listen to oldies on the way to work,  and smoke a little breakfast in the morning, Juanito was a hard worker and fun to work with.  In the 80's and 90's we played in the same softball team, I remember all the good times  playing but especially after the games and at "footsie's" drinking and playing pool.  So many good memories I was blessed to have him as my homeboy, Love you Juanito!  CP boys p/v, rest in piece. 

Uncle Juan, you will forever be in my heart. You left me with some great memories that no one can ever replace. Whether it was lifting me up so high in your truck or telling me how I can improve my swing to knock the ball out of the park against those boys! I love you and I will miss hearing that contagious laugh of yours after saying “Chiques!What are you doing?!” May you continue to shine down on us. 
Love always, Chiques  

Juanito I will cherish our days my Homie my Friend my Brown Brother, I will miss your smile and your laugh, Rest in Peace!
Love you!

Juanito, I’m going to miss walking into my moms house and seeing you sitting at the table & you telling me GLORIA go home I was here first. I remember that one time your boss got an anonymous phone call from a neighbor thinking There was something going on with my mom & you cause you would show up @ the same time everyday for lunch & the neighbor said the lady that lives there is married & her husband is not home. OMG! That was hallarious. There’s so many memories that you left us that will be remembered and laughed about. My parents especially my dad will miss you dearly. I still can’t believe that your gone you will truly be missed by all of us. 
Till we meet again

Brother Juan you were always one of most hard working men I had the pleasure of growing up around and one of the men that was not only down for his family! But down for anyone who needed help ! Remember Juan you used to tell me what was that again Tom “ I’ll say !!! I’ll have another beer ! And you used have that laugh that was like no other and then play with your mustache! I love you brother rest easy bro 👊🏽🇲🇽

Homeboy, you will always be in our hearts, we had alot of great memories since grammar school, going to miss the dancing machine.  You will always be a brother to me.

Coach Juanito was one of the first coaches I met at Northeast LA in 1998 when I first went up there. He took me under his wing and taught me baseball drills to teach the kids. We would then stay at the park after practice or games and just talk baseball. I remember he would have a tv with an antenna in the bin and we would watch whatever baseball games we could get with the antenna or we would watch the USC football games. The best part for me was the passion he would show to teach the kids and how he took care of our field.
