Denise Pamala Perez, beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away peacefully at home on August 4, 2026 at the age of 76. She was surrounded by the love and memories of those who meant the most to her.
Denise was born on July 16, 1950, in Oakland, California. She was the loving wife of Jay and a devoted mother to her son, CJ, and daughter-in-law, Denise. She was a proud grandmother to Vanessa and Xavier.
Denise and Jay were married for over 56 years. They built a beautiful life together, traveled, and spent a lot of time with family & friends.
Denise loved making memories with her family. Some of her favorite trips were taking the family to Disneyland or spending time at Seascape beach. Those trips became treasured memories filled with laughter, togetherness & good food.
Denise leaves behind a family and a circle of friends who loved her deeply and who will miss her more than words can express. Her traditions, her laughter, her favorite things, the special names she gave to those she loved, and most of all, her love will continue to live on through all of them.
May she rest peacefully, knowing just how deeply she was loved.
