Jose loved to build and create things, and spent many years in the construction business. He was a Dallas Cowboys fan and loved classic cars, especially muscle cars and low riders. Jose loved to cook and he was a BBQ Pitmaster, famous amongst his family and friends. Jose had a great sense of humor, but his greatest pride was his family and friends whom he loved dearly.
