It is with much sadness and much love that we mourn the passing of Jose Razo, age 96, on September 10, 2025. Born on August 28, 1929, Jose lived a life filled with kindness, generosity, and abundant love.

Jose or known by most as "Papa Joe"  is remembered as a man who brought warmth and light into any room he entered. His strong, loving nature was ever present, and his kind spirit touched the hearts of many. He was a lover of nature and found peace in tending to his rose bushes and building homes for the birds in his backyard. His dedication and care for these simple pleasures mirrored his love for his family and friends, creating a sanctuary of beauty and love for all who knew him.

He is survived by his sons, Rudy and Robert Razo, who will miss their father’s wisdom and unwavering support. His spirit lives on in his granddaughters, Alyssa and Shinay Razo, who will always remember their grandfather’s kind and caring nature. His laughter will live on in his great grandson Trenton, who was always able to put a smile on Papa's face. His passing leaves a void in the lives of many, but his legacy of love and generosity will be carried forward by those who were fortunate to have known him. He now joins his wife Lupe Razo in Heaven. 

In lieu of flowers, donations are being accepted to help cover the costs of the memorial service. Those who wish to contribute can do so through the following link: https://everloved.com/life-of…. This gesture of support will greatly help the family during this difficult time.
