I will never forget that  my cousin John-John invited me to church (Cathedral of Faith in San Jose) many years ago. This has had a HUGE impact on my life. He helped me take a big step in my walk with following our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, something  I hesitated to do on my own. My big brother Ralph  reminded me, that’s the same church I met my wife Olinda at. That gesture of support from my cousin forever changed my life and I am grateful.  1 Thessalonians 4:13-14

My deepest condolences to Ricky, Mercy, Teresa, Richard an Henry. Thank you primo John John for the mouth watering cooking skills you brough to all the gatherings you never hesitated to host on my behalf. Having the family we have allowed us, as a family to grow an build the relationship as cousins saddens my heart you are no longer here. You will never be forgotten primo Johnny.  May you rest in piece primo. 

There are so many memories of us growing up together. From playing baseball, camping, bbq, holidays, and family celebrations. Your more like a brother to me than a cousin! You been there f or me through thick and thin, good and bad. You were such a humble person, never complained, always so happy! You loved your family and friends just as we all loved you! Rest In Peace cousin! Don’t let grandpa get you with the cane! Love you John John

My heart breaks for the Navarrete Family. I remember John-John was a happy kid/person, his smile was one of a kind and shined so brightly. His heart was very humble. I remember the family had a reunion at Yucaipa Regional Park.  John-John was a child at the time, he was so happy, he offered drinks, water or soda. I will always remember John's hospitality was incredible. As he grew-up his cooking was mouth drop-down sensational, (yes) Bubu Crocker.  It saddens me that he was taken too soon but comfort to the family that without a doubt he is in heaven with our Lord and reunited with loved ones. May you rest in peace Lil-Cousin. Deepest condolences Navarrete Family. In my thoughts and prayers.  Love you ALL!! 
Sincerely,
Cynthia Jimenez
