Obituary

José de Jesús Márquez Castañeda “Chuyo” de 32 años, nacido en Phoenix, Arizona el 24 de agosto de 1990. Falleció el sábado 8 de octubre de 2022 en Avondale, Arizona.

José era un joven cariñoso y afectuoso, tenía muchas pasiones, pero su favorita era el arte. Le encantaba escribir, leer, dibujar y tenía innumerables cuadernos de bocetos que llenaba con su comunicación visual favorita: el arte callejero. Diría que ese era su pasatiempo favorito, le encantaba expresarse a través del arte. Además, le encantaba escuchar música, jugar baloncesto, disfrutaba hacer ejercicio y salir con amigos.
José era muy organizado, muy detallista, como él mismo diría que era un perfeccionista. Por ejemplo, nunca saldría de casa sin planchar su ropa, específicamente su camisa. Se preocupaba mucho por su apariencia, nuevamente con él siendo un perfeccionista, su cabello. Si su cabello no era como él quería que fuera, no estaba contento y lo arreglaba hasta que estaba feliz, entonces continuaba con su rutina.
Se consideraba a sí mismo como una persona espiritual, y citando “todo sucede por una razón”. Si realmente quería algo, pequeño o grande, hacía todo lo posible por conseguirlo. Tenía un amor incondicional por sus hijos, adoraba absolutamente a sus bebés. Fueron su mayor inspiración y motivación para seguir adelante todos los días.
Le sobreviven sus padres Jesús Márquez y Solia Castañeda. Sus hijos Stonie y Ryder Márquez y su hija Jerzey Márquez, madre de sus hijos Talia Colorado. Sus dos hermanos menores Oscar y David Marquez y sus tres hermanas menores Jasmine, Noemi y Berenice Marquez.

Jose was a loving and caring young man, had many passions but his favorite being art. He loved to write, read, draw and he had countless sketchbooks which he filled with his favorite visual communication-street art. He would say that was his favorite hobby, he loved to express himself through art. In addition, he loved listening to music, playing basketball, enjoyed working out, and liked hanging out with friends.
Jose was very organized, he was very detail oriented, like he himself would say he was a perfectionist. For example, he would never leave the house without ironing his clothes, specifically his shirt. He cared a lot about his appearance, again with him being a perfectionist, his hair. If his hair wasn’t how he wanted it to be he wasn’t content and fixed it till he was happy, then he would continue in his routine.
He considered himself to be a spiritual person, and him quoting “everything happens for a reason”. If he really wanted something, small or big he tried his best to get it. He had unconditional love for his children, he absolutely adored his babies. They were his biggest inspiration and motivation to keep going everyday.
