Jose was a proud Marine whose strength, discipline, and dedication shaped the man he was. After his service, he continued working toward his future by attending welding school, determined to build a better life for himself and those he loved. He believed in hard work and always pushed himself to be better.
Outside of his responsibilities, Jose enjoyed going to the gym and spending weekends out with his friends, creating memories filled with laughter and connection. He valued friendship and lived life with energy and passion.
Above all, Jose was an incredible brother. He was a guiding presence to his sisters and a role model to his little brother, always offering life lessons and encouragement. He wanted his siblings to be the best versions of themselves and never hesitated to remind them of their worth and potential. His love was steady, protective, and sincere.
Jose will be remembered for his strong heart, his wisdom beyond his years, and the love he gave so freely to his family and friends. Though his life was far too short, the impact he made will live on through the people he inspired and loved.
He will be forever missed and never forgotten. This is a see you later not a goodbye.
There will be a funeral mass at St. Philip Benizi Catholic Church in Jonesboro, Georgia at 1:00 PM on Tuesday January 20, 2026. There will be a visitation 2 hours prior of the service. Interment is private.
