Jose was a devoted son, husband, father, grandpa and devout Cathlioc at St. Mary’s from
baptism to resurrection. He was a hard working man and jack of all trades. Jose worked at
Ethicon for several years in the print shop He gave 100% in anything he did; definitely one to be
remembered by family, friends and anyone who came in contact with him. Always starting each
day with a smile and a positive attitude he brought the sunshine back to everyone’s rainy day,
He excelled at all sports but his heart was in football and baseball. He loved the excitement of
fast cars, especially the car his father gave him, a ‘69 Dodge Coronet R/T. Jose would be found
rocking out to classic rock but most importantly his idol, Carlos Santana. His girls will remember
him as a great role model. He taught them to put your heart into anything you do.
