Jorge will be remembered as a beloved and cherished presence in the lives of those who knew him—someone whose steady devotion to the people he loved was matched by a hard-working spirit that quietly inspired others. His enduring love for his family remained at the center of his life, reflected in the care he gave, the loyalty he showed, and the constancy with which he stood by those closest to him.
A meaningful part of Jorge’s story was the lasting bond he maintained with his ex-wife, Iliana Machado. For 37 years, they remained close friends, and that friendship continued—steadfast and respectful—until his time of passing.
Jorge is survived by his daughter, Daniela Machado; his son-in-law, Kevin Drohan; his grandson, Jack Drohan Machado; his granddaughter, Karina Drohan Machado; his ex-wife, Iliana Machado; and his sister, Beatriz Machado.
