Jesus Eduardo Salazar Reyes

Jesus Eduardo Salazar Reyes, lovingly known as "DK," passed away on October 8, 2024, in Phoenix, Arizona, at the age of 33. Born on February 28, 1991, in Los Angeles, California, Jesus brought joy and laughter to those around him throughout his life.

Jesus was a devoted son to Blanca and Felipe Salazar and a cherished brother to Felipe Salazar Jr., Isabel Salazar, Christina Salazar, and Daisy Salazar. He was also a proud father to his son Jonathan and daughters Analeah and Alaizah whom he loved deeply and spoke about often. His many nephews and nieces admired him deeply, looking up to him with love and respect.

From a young age, Jesus displayed remarkable athleticism. He played soccer alongside his older brother Felipe Jr., excelling as a goalie and contributing to numerous team victories. In middle school, he joined the football team and earned the Most Valuable Player award for his outstanding performance. As he grew older, his passion for adventure led him to biking with his brother. Together, they built ramps in an empty field behind their childhood home in California, pushing their limits and creating lasting memories.

Beyond sports, Jesus was a talented graffiti artist whose creativity left an impression on those who saw his work. He had an undeniable charisma that drew people in-his witty jokes could light up any room, and his cheerful spirit made every gathering more vibrant. Whether spending time with family or friends, Jesus had a way of making everyone feel special. His kindness knew no bounds; he was always willing to lend a helping hand. He spent his last several years with his sister Christina and her husband Gabriel who he referred to as a brother. His bond with his nephew Jayden was one of a kind which leaves many heartfelt memories. One could say he was Momma's boy, as she was always the most important woman in his life.

Jesus's passing leaves an immense void in the hearts of those who knew him. His warmth and humor will be remembered forever.
