Albert Renee Zaragoza Jr. Memorial
Donation protected
Late Saturday night, May 26th 2018, the world unexpectedly lost a beautiful soul. Albert Renee Zaragoza Jr. “Chato” tragically lost his life while crossing the street at Van Buren and Bellgrave in Jurupa Valley, CA. As his female friend was about to cross the street, he stepped ahead of her and they proceeded to cross. Seconds later he was hit by an oncoming vehicle. According to his friend, the vehicle came out of nowhere and an ongoing investigation is still under way. Miraculously, just hours before his death he received Christ when another friend led him in prayer. As a result we know he is now home with our Father in Heaven.
His father Renee, mother Barbara, and two sisters Katrina and Andrea are devastated beyond comprehension, their lives will never be the same. He was their only son/brother and they are still in shock and struggling to cope with this sudden loss.
Several messages have been sent asking how to help, so this campaign has been created as a way to keep everyone up-to-date with plans, and also offer a place for messages and donations to be left. Funeral plans are still being arranged, and any updates will be posted here.
Anyone who knew Chato, knows that he had a huge heart and would help anyone who needed it. He had a smile that would literally light up a room. He was definitely a jokester and always knew how to make you laugh, his positive energy was contagious. He was truly an “Artist” at heart; his artwork will be cherished by his family forever.
“Your Smile”
Though your smile is gone forever,
And your hand we cannot touch,
Still we have so many memories,
Of the ones we loved so much.
Your memory is our keepsake,
With which we’ll never part,
God has you in his keeping,
We have you in our hearts.
We love you Chato and will miss you until the end of time.
