Joseph Trejo Obituary

Joe "Jo Jo" Trejo 10-25-1965 to 04-21-2013

"I came. I grew. I kicked up some dust?watched the dust settle. Kicked up some more dust?watched it settle again. I finally made peace with my GOD JEHOVAH and then dedicated my life to my GOD JEHOVAH. And now I wait in his memorial tomb, for his resurrection. In between those times here on Earth, I heard some great music: du wop; shake, rattle and roll; oldies; underground oldies; soulful 70's; funk; 80's; hip-hop; old school; freestyle; love songs; and even up-to-date. I did some great fishing, had some fun times with my brothers. I ate some great food, some great bbq. I've built some bad low-rider bikes, seen some great cars and some bad bombs, and retired with a bomb of my own. Not just any car, but my dream car and joined my brothers in Nite Life Car club. And to top it off, who could have thought that my childhood friend Gina would become my best friend, the love of my life, and my wife. I leave behind my children Angelique, Vanessa, Elijah, and Joseph; my grandchildren Leanna and Milania; my mom Patsy and her husband Richard; my siblings Augie, Danny (Missy), Freddie, Stephanie, and Lacy; nieces; nephews; and many more family members and friends that I have met throughout my life. I leave here with no regrets, for my life has been amazing. I lived and I was loved. It can't get any better than that!" - Joe "Jo Jo" Trejo

Knowing JoJo is a great honor, we both shared a live of music and would talk extensively about our favorites, JoJo would always bless me with his knowledge of music and support me when I would film for my TV program. His kindness will be missed Truly a great man.
