Jojo had a very outgoing personality. He was charismatic, friendly, and a huge social butterfly. For over 27 years, he worked as a welder—a profession he took great pride in and excelled at.

Family was a very important part of his life. He loved spending time with his family and friends. He was a wonderful son/son-in-law, outstanding brother, loving husband, dedicated and proud father, caring uncle, terrific brother-in-law, and a loyal friend. He made friends everywhere he went and talked to everyone. He enjoyed great food and good company with lots of love and laughter, sometimes accompanied by music and dancing or just heartfelt conversations. With his enormous sense of humor, Jojo always had people laughing which he loved to do. His presence left a lasting impact on everyone he met.

Jojo also had a strong faith and a deep love for his heavenly Father and his church family. His generous spirit, vibrant energy, and unwavering love will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
