Joe’s services

Donation protected
We want to give Joe Ignacio Gatica the memorial he deserves, to honor his memory and say our last goodbyes. I am currently asking for donations to help cover the cost of Joes's funeral.

How do I even begin to describe you Joe you were such a positive energy in the Gatica family, their was definitely no one like my brother. Joe always put everyone else before himself, he always made everyone feel welcomed and special, never thought twice about helping others. He was always the life of the party with so many family & friends who just loved to be in his presence. Joe was the kind of person who would stop on the side of the road to help a stranger & then next thing you know they were no longer strangers they were now friends/buddies. Joe was exactly what this world needed, some more "Joes". So many good memories brother, all your friends are remembering the fun times in middle/high school how you were always "holding it down & keeping it gansta", so many road-trips that we took and you never missed any from South Padre, Chicago, Colorado, Missouri, Aruba, Bahamas's and San Luis Potosí no matter for work or family you were always ready to go and never thought twice. You were always so charismatic & your big beautiful smile. You would definitely use that to your advantage especially in the drive thru your favorite lines were "Ave hook it up" & "throw in some extra fries whatever owww thank you." You always had everyone's back and everytime you saw any one of us you asked "everything good anvone bother vou?" "Do I need kick some ass?" Thankfully it was always "no everything is good" but just having someone like you that meant what he said and always looking out for us made us feel safe. You were our protector and we were definitely yours. This is something that is so hard to except but it's because we miss you so much Joe. We understand it was your time & only God knows why he needed you more than we did. Just know that everybody loved you so much and you really left your mark on so many people with your positive spirit and strong faith as Joe would say "God is good all the time baby owww!"

Joe Ignacio Gatica AKA "Joe G", we love you always and forever in our hearts
