My husband Manuel Perez ( Tito’s nephew) myself and 2 year old daughter moved  to Cali in 1976. Tio  Joe & Tia Maria opened up there already full house of  6 children and 3 adults , to live with them until we saved enough money to get our own place. That is how kind and always ready to help kind of man he was. My fondest memories of Tio Joe are watching him dancing with his sister Amparo ( my mother in law) . Man could they dance!! Another memory is listening to him tell jokes and having the people around him laugh. The Zamora families have always been a blessing to my children, myself ❤️and Manuel Perez Jr.

Tio Joe would come to my parents house in El Monte. There was never a time he didn’t show up without sweet bread, a big smile and his amazing humor. 
My all time favorite memory was dancing with my Tio. 


My brother-in-law was a very noble great person.  I cannot remember a time when I needed him and he was there,by my side. When I married his sister he took me in like if I was his brother. So many memories such a long time we spent together I am going to miss you may God bless and keep you 



Manuel Perez



As I sit here with my mother I asked her to please share some of her favorite memories as tears went down her face she shared with me on times when it was her and her mother and my Tio Joe would play the guitar and the other two would sing. Tio Joe was full of love towards his family. Every time my mom came from visiting California I loved her stories of how her and her brothers would get together have coffee and reminisce of their younger days we love you rest in peace my dear brother Tio we will miss you until we meet again. Love Amparo and Rosana.
