With heavy hearts, we are asking for your love and support for our beloved father, husband, grandfather, and brother, Jose Luis Uribe Jr., who was diagnosed with ALS in 2024 and has passed away on September 10th 2026.

Jose was born on April 8, 1969, and has always been known for his hard work, dedication, and love for his family. A devoted husband to Maria Elena, proud father to Andres, Gabriel, Ariel, Alexander, and Samantha, and joyful grandfather to Azrael and Anastasiya, Jose’s life has always revolved around caring for those he loves.

Despite working two full-time jobs and often running on just a few hours of sleep, Jose never lost his passion for fitness and bodybuilding. He inspired not only his children but everyone around him with his discipline and commitment. At the gym, everyone knew him as the hardest worker in the room.

Outside of fitness, Jose was incredibly creative and hands-on. He loved building and crafting—whether it was making gym equipment, designing cigar boxes, creating DIY car interiors, or fixing things around the house. His creativity was an extension of his love for his family and friends, as he poured his imagination into everything he made. Sadly, ALS has taken away his ability to continue doing the things he loved most.

Jose has always been full of joy, laughter, and conversation. He could talk with anyone about anything, day or night. Today, ALS has taken his voice, and he now relies on an AI app to communicate. Still, he continues to inspire us with his strength, positivity, and love.

Our family is now facing the reality of losing a father. We are humbly asking for help with funeral expenses and the many costs that come with losing a loved one

Any contribution—no matter how small—will go directly toward helping our family during this heartbreaking time. If you are unable to donate, we kindly ask that you share Jose’s story and keep him in your prayers.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for supporting us as we honor the incredible man Jose is.

With love,

The Uribe Family
