Jose Y. Ortega Rodriguez's Obituary
Jose Y. Ortega Rodriguez, 40, was tragically taken from his family on June 12, 2014. Originally from Mexico, Jose had worked and lived in the Inland Empire for twenty four years.
Jose worked as a Maintenance Technician at ‘Camden at Landmark Apartments’. He was an amazing father, husband, friend, sibling, and son. He always had a smile; no matter what was going on in life. He never said no and always went above and beyond to help others.
Jose was the man of the party, always full of life and happiness. He always said "never leave for tomorrow what you can do today, because there might not be a tomorrow". He will be so missed by his children and family because that was the most important thing for him, his kids and family. He rose through the ashes and became the man that he was, until he took his last breath. There will never be a man like him that valued and loved life as much as he did. His love and the memories that he leaves behind will be forever treasured and remembered.
He leaves behind his wife Rosa Bernal and his children Jose Angel, Jacob Anthony and Jazmin Alexa. Also his 6 sisters and 6 brothers and his parents ‘J’ and Dolores.
