Funeral & Medical Expenses for Jose Jauregui

Hello everyone, I'm Julianna Jauregui, Jose's/Pepe's Daughter.

I don't even know where to begin.

Every Father's Day, I would always make a card for my dad telling him how much I loved him and would get excited to see his smile when receiving my card. However, this year will be very different.

Accepting that my dad has passed away is hard for me. I keep asking why he had to leave me so soon and I keep wishing that I had more time with him. As a single dad, he raised me to be strong, independent, and resilient but also kind, considerate and warm-hearted. All of these attributes were easy for me to pick up because I saw them in the person who was teaching them to me - my dad. My dad would always tell me that there was no handbook or manual on how to be a dad, but that all he did was try his best to raise me. In my eyes, my dad really did raise me the best that he could and to me, he was and is the best dad.

He would always be waiting for me after school, at a dance or a birthday party and in general, would always be there when and if I needed him. He taught me how to do flooring, maintain my car, fix electrical issues and how to use tools. He shared with me his goofiness, singing and guitar skills, drawings and all his tic-tac-toe tricks. Besides me, my dad was a brother, uncle, friend, and dad to other people who were in his life. That was special about him. He supported not only me but his family and friends when they needed him as well.

My dad originally went to the hospital for a small procedure but unfortunately, things didn't go well. This unexpected fare well is still hard to wrap my head around but I know that my dad would want me to continue living and go forward. I'm here to ask for your generosity in donations that contribute towards my dad's funeral expenses and medical bills. Thank you for your supporting our family, I appreciate it.
