Jose Elias Cardenas (Beef), born on April 21, 1976 passed away August 29, 2020. He was only 44 years old, and had so much more life to live. He leaves behind his parents, Marta and Elias Cardenas, his brother Ignacio, sisters Marta, Sylvia and Cecilia, and children, Caiden (12), Angel (16), Preston and Vanessa. Everyone knew him to be a great friend and bright light, people just gravitated towards his kind spirit. In his house, everyone was welcome because he had the biggest, most loving heart. He was dependable, hard working, and a great father to not only his 4 kids, but all his kids’s friends and anyone who needed a father figure. He took in so many people over the years and always offered a good laugh, a shoulder to cry on and even a place to stay if you needed it. Nothing will remind us of him more than a good BBQ and a couple cold modelos. You will live in our hearts forever and never be forgotten.
This page has been created by his daughters, Vanessa and Preston. It will be used to pay for funeral and service arrangements. No dates have been selected yet, but we will inform you once the family has decided.
There will be a balloon release in Napa, CA on Tuesday September 1st. More details to come.
Please share this page with your favorite memories with him.
