<div>Dear Friends and Family,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>It is with heavy hearts that we share our beloved José de Jesus Sanchez passed away on August 13, 2025. He was surrounded by love in his final moments, held in the arms of his wife, Diane Rodriguez, and his two sons, Cesar and Draven Sanchez, at their family home. Throughout his life, and especially during his battle with cancer, José’s faith in God deepened and gave him the strength to face each day with courage and grace. We also find comfort in knowing he is now at peace, embraced by the love of Christ. We are deeply grateful for your support —your prayers, kind words, and generous donations mean more than words can express during this difficult time.

<div>About José Sanchez

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>José was born on October 17, 1975, in Guadalajara, México. When he was five years old, he moved to Chicago, which became his new home. He was the youngest son of Coty Sanchez and grew up with his siblings, Enrique, Elizabeth, Cesar, and Vianney.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>From a young age, José was known for being shy, kind, and intelligent. He had a special love for music and would often sing for his family; his favorites included songs by Chepilín and "Stand by Me" by Ben E. King.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In his 20s, José met Diane Rodriguez, and together they built a beautiful life. They welcomed two sons, Cesar Adam in 2000 and Draven Alejandro in 2010. José will be remembered as a brave, admirable, and loving father. He found joy in the simple things, spending time with his wife and boys, fishing, gardening, and shooting hoops.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Though we feel a deep sadness in his passing, we hold onto the hope that he is now at peace, reunited with loved ones who passed before him—his big brother Enrique, his cousin Jesse, his uncle Salvador, aunt Adelina, and his grandparents Mercedez and Salvador.

<div>Queridos Amigos y Familia,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Con gran pesar les informamos que nuestro querido José de Jesús Sánchez falleció el 13 de Agosto de 2025. En sus últimos momentos, estuvo rodeado de amor, abrazado por su esposa, Diane Rodríguez, y sus dos hijos, César y Draven Sánchez, en su hogar. A lo largo de su vida, y especialmente durante su lucha contra el cáncer, la fe de José en Dios se profundizó y le dio la fuerza para afrontar cada día con valentía y gracia. Nos consuela saber que ahora está en paz, abrazado por el amor de Cristo. Agradecemos profundamente su apoyo; sus oraciones, palabras de aliento y donaciones significan mucho más de lo que las palabras pueden expresar en estos momentos difíciles.

</div>

<div>Acerca de José Sánchez

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>José nació el 17 de Octubre de 1976 en Guadalajara, México. A los cinco años, llegó a Chicago, donde se convirtió en su nuevo hogar. Era el hijo menor de Coty Sánchez y creció con sus hermanos: Enrique, Elizabeth, César y Vianney.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Desde pequeño, José se destacó por su timidez, amabilidad e inteligencia. Tenía un amor especial por la música y solía cantar para su familia; sus canciones favoritas incluían canciones de Chepilín y "Stand by Me" de Ben E. King.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>A los 20s, José conoció a Diane Rodríguez y juntos construyeron una vida hermosa. Tuvieron dos hijos: César Adam en el año 2000 y Draven Alejandro en el 2010. José será recordado como un padre valiente, admirable y cariñoso. Encontraba alegría en las cosas sencillas: pasar tiempo con su esposa e hijos, pescar, hacer jardinería y jugar basket.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Aunque sentimos una profunda tristeza por su fallecimiento, mantenemos la esperanza de que ahora esté en paz, reencontrado con sus seres queridos que fallecieron antes que él: su hermano mayor Enrique, su primo Jesse, su tío Salvador, su tía Adelina y sus abuelos Mercedes y Salvador.

</div>
