We were hoping not to have the need to go to Go-Fund-Me for this, but the work life insurance did not cover death by health issues. Our family is beyond devastated over the loss of Jose "Chema" Ulloa . He was more than a brother-in-law. He was like my brother. We all had different relationships with him, but what we all had in common is that we loved him to no end.
Chema was born in San Miguel, El Salvador in 1973, as a young man, he and his older brother were recruited to the military. He was forced to fight a senseless war ending in him being shot. He fled to the United States to make a future for himself and help his family. He became a truck driver and went throughout the United States enjoying the drive to places he had to deliver goods for people.
Although, Chema loved his job, it kept him away from his family, Specially his two daughters (19), Andrea and Aranza(6). He would give his daughters everything they wanted and they enjoy every minute he was in town. Being a truck driver is a dangerous job, we always told him to be careful, especially when he was going on long trips. On Wednesday May 19th, he had called Aranza to tell her he would be arriving on Friday and he had plans for her. Andrea graduated from High School and is now going to of Cal State University, Northridge. Two good girls were devastated when they found out their father had a stroke, on Thursday. We are a tight family and will be supporting Andrea and Aranza. But at this point we need the support of our community.
Chema had acquire life insurance for the specific reason that his job was dangerous. He wanted to make sure that if he had an accident his daughters would be taken care of. Unfortunately, no one expected that we would have a stroke and the insurance told us Chema did not have coverage for death do to health issues. We though he would make it. His sisters all work in the health industry, and had started planning how to help him recover. But his brain had suffered too much damage, on Saturday night he went into seizure and was intubated and after another stroke. There was no coming back. The family made the most difficult decision they ever had to do, and it was his wishes that if he ever found himself in that position, to let him go. He passed away Sunday around 5:15AM.
The insurance company said they will not cover one dime. So, we are respectfully requesting your support for his funeral services. The family will thank you very, very much. Anything will help. You can also make checks to the family, contact me for further information.
