In Loving Memory of Jose “Joe” Lopez Jr.

My name is Erica Lopez-Brown, and I’m setting up this GoFundMe account at the request of my mother, Zaida Rios. We are heartbroken to share that my beloved brother, Jose “Joe” Lopez Jr., passed away unexpectedly on February 14, 2025.

Joe was a devoted family man—loyal sometimes to a fault—and his love knew no bounds. He always put family first, offering kindness and generosityt; he was the type of person who would give you the shirt off his back. Though life often brings hardships, his passing has left a void that we hope to honor with a proper farewell.

We are asking for your support to help cover the burial expenses for Joe. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference during this challenging time. And if you’re unable to contribute financially, your love, prayers, and kind words are equally appreciated.

Thank you for standing by our family as we navigate this deep loss. Your support means the world to us, and together, we will keep Joe’s memory alive in our hearts.

PS. GoFundMe required me to pick a date for the services so I randomly picked the date. We don’t know the date yet but will keep everyone posted.
