Jose Ortiz

Surrounded by his loving family, Jose Ortiz passed away peacefully on October 16, 2025. A devoted husband, father, son, and friend, Jose leaves behind a legacy of hard work, craftsmanship, and unwavering dedication.

Jose is survived by his beloved wife, Margaret Ortiz of 45 years, father to Sheila (Leo), April (Matt), Victoria, and Jose (Tamara), and a cherished grandfather of 9. His extended family—including brothers, sisters, nephews, and nieces—will deeply miss his smile, warmth, humor, and generous spirit.

A Mass in celebration of Jose’s life will be held at St. Anne Parish on November 3, 2025, at 10:00 AM, followed by a reception at the Parish Hall.

Jose’s legacy lives on in the lives he touched and the love he gave so freely. He will be dearly missed.
