Jose - Camacho

José "Pepe" Camacho, nacido el 25 de diciembre de 1941 en Tala, Jalisco, México, partió de este mundo en paz el 3 de diciembre de 2025 en Chino, California, rodeado del cariño de su amada familia. Padre dedicado y carpintero talentoso, José dejó una huella imborrable en todos los que lo conocieron.

A lo largo de su vida, José se entregó por completo a su oficio, especializándose en la creación de hermosas mesas de madera de roble. No solo fue un trabajador incansable; también fue un hombre que se fijaba metas altas y siempre las alcanzaba. Su pasión por su trabajo se reflejaba en cada pieza que elaboraba, demostrando la habilidad y el amor que ponía en su arte.

Más allá de su vida profesional, José era conocido por su personalidad alegre. Tenía una maravillosa habilidad para sacar sonrisas a todos. Su espíritu jovial solía ir acompañado del sonido familiar y reconfortante de él silbando “La Bikina”, una melodía que su familia rápidamente llegó a asociar con él. Siempre procuraba que quienes lo rodeaban estuvieran bien atendidos, ofreciendo bebidas—ya fuera una cerveza fría, un refresco o agua—con una sonrisa invitante. José también valoraba la importancia de verse bien, cuidando su apariencia con el mismo orgullo que su trabajo.

En su tiempo libre, José encontraba consuelo y alegría en la música, siendo su canción favorita "A Mi Manera", interpretada por Vicente Fernández. Esta melodía resonaba en su hogar, un acompañamiento perfecto para una vida vivida plena y felizmente. Sentía un inmenso orgullo por su familia, cuyos logros—especialmente en su educación—le brindaban una alegría profunda. No había mayor felicidad para José que ver a sus hijos triunfar y prosperar.

José deja en este mundo a sus amadas hijas Gabriela, Celina, Sonia y Lorena, así como a su hijo, José Francisco Camacho. Ellos conservarán por siempre su legado de trabajo duro, amor y apoyo. José también deja gratos recuerdos de su hija fallecida, María Rocío Camacho, y de su querida esposa, Francisca Camacho, quienes lo precedieron en la muerte. Fue también hijo amado de Pedro Alberto Camacho González y Francisca Muñoz Ávila.

Mientras nos preparamos para celebrar su vida, se invita a familiares y amigos a honrar a José en una velación el 10 de diciembre de 2025, de 5:00 PM a 9:00 PM en la Historic Sacred Heart Chapel en Covina, California. La Misa se llevará a cabo el 11 de diciembre de 2025 a las 11:00 AM en St. Paul the Apostle Catholic Church en Chino Hills, seguida por un servicio en el cementerio a las 12:30 PM en Holy Cross Cemetery.

La vida de José "Pepe" Camacho fue una melodía de alegría, calidez y amor. Su presencia será profundamente extrañada, pero su espíritu resonará para siempre en los corazones de quienes tuvieron el privilegio de conocerlo. Que encuentre la paz eterna mientras recordamos la hermosa canción de su vida.

He made sure those around him were taken care of, always offering refreshments—be it a cold beer, soda, or water—with an inviting smile. Jose also cherished the importance of looking good, taking pride in his appearance as much as his craft.

In his leisure time, Jose found solace and joy in music, with his favorite song being "A Mi Manera," as sung by Vicente Fernandez.
