My stepdad, Jose, was struck by a vehicle while riding his bicycle home for his break on Friday afternoon. This resulted in damage to Jose’s skull and brain, leaving our family with the decision to take him off of life support. His organs will be donated to others so they will have a fighting chance at life, although his sadly ended abruptly.

Jose has been a working member of the Winnemucca community for the 21 years that he has lived here. More commonly known for being a longtime cook for ‘The Pig’ throughout all its transitions.

We are needing funds to offset the costs of his funeral arrangements and medical bills. Which will be expensive just to lay him to rest. Anything you can spare is greatly appreciated, and we thank everyone who knew Jose personally and cared for him as well. ❤️
