It is with profound sorrow that we announce the passing of Jose "J.C" Delgado, who left us on February 17, 2024, aged 66. Born on February 10, 1958, J.C was beloved by many and will be greatly missed for his humor, outgoing nature, helpfulness, and stubborn charm.

He leaves behind his beloved son, Joe, his loving daughters, Jaclyn and Cynthia; his cherished grandchildren, Benjamin and Matthew. Melanie, Dominick, Jonathan, Morris Jr, and Frank. Along with Sisters Rhea & Rhoda, and all his Nieces and Nephews who he cherished. J.C was predeceased by his son, Roberto Delgado, and his parents, Joseph Delgado and Minerva Peters-Delgado, Siblings  Laura, Linda and Benjamin George. The legacy he leaves behind in his family will continue to resonate.

Known for his diverse tastes, J.C was a die-hard fan of the Raiders, loved Pepsi and Tequila (though not mixed together), and enjoyed a wide range of music genres. His playlist varied from Fats Domino to Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond to Fleetwood Mac, Coolio to The Chi Lites, and much more. A lover of fantasy, war, and action books, particularly those about old gods or based on history, J.C's interest in varied themes was evident.

J.C's philosophy revolved around living life to the fullest, with no regrets. He believed that our every action is a choice and that we should stand by the decisions we make. This outlook on life, tied with his lively personality, added an unmatchable zest to his character.
