Jose Octavio Astorga immigrated to the United States and began working in the Manufacturing Industry. He enjoyed spending his time at the horse races. In 1978 with some of those race track winnings he was able to purchase a home for his family in National City. The same home they still live in today. His treasured moments were watching his kids grow up in this home and then his grandchildren playing out in the yard.
He is dearly loved by all of his family and will be missed.
