Joshua Ortiz funeral

Donation protected
Joshua loving father, fiancé, son, brother, and great friend. Last Saturday, while building bunk beds for his children he suffered a severe asthma attack, he tried using his inhaler and nebulizer treatments, however was unsuccessful to relieve the symptoms. He became short of breath and lost consciousness and went into cardiac arrest. His fiancé called 911 and started cpr. He was down without oxygen for 35mins and was placed on ventilator. Family and friends have prayed and remained faithful for his recovery but he sadly was declared brain dead after multiple tests. It is never easy and this certainly hasn’t been easy on this large family. Joshua brought happiness wherever he went. He smiled like the sun on a hot day. His kids and family meant everything to him. He was a loyal and trustworthy friend who always was there for you. 
At this difficult time the family humbly seeks your prayers and any assistance you maybe able to provide for funeral arrangements.
