Joe Villalobos Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Apr. 20, 2013.
Joe Villalobos was born March 9, 1930 in San Diego, CA. Joe was second eldest of three boys and born fifth of ten children. Joe was promoted to Sergeant in the 1st Calvary Division Infantry, during the Korean War. Post discharge, he returned to his previous position as a butcher in a local meat packing establishment. He attained his goal to realize his dream of becoming a Food and Safety Inspector for the State of California, which later came under the control of United States Food and Drug Administration. In 1995, Joe retired after having worked from early childhood to the age of 65. After retirement, he enjoyed his frequent visits to his home in San Diego. He is survived by his loving wife Josie of 62 years, son Daniel, daughter Yvonne, son-in-law: Lawrence, grandsons Andres, Loren, Giovann and grand-daughters Monica and Priscilla. The sound of his laughter and the kindest of his heart will be dearly missed by those who he touched throughout his life.

Grandpa Joe has always treated me like family ever since the first day I met him. Both Grandma Josie and Grandpa Joe always welcomed me with open arms. It was an honor and privilege to have met someone like him. I will see you again Grandpa Joe. I'll make sure I have a 30 pack with me next time, so we can sit, drink, and reminisce.

Prayers and condolences to the Martinez and Villalobos Family.

I called you Mr. Villalobos when we met, I was only nineteen then. You quickly asked me to call you Joe. Joe, you were an outstanding man. Your sence of humor, your kindness and welcoming spirit always impressed me. Most importantly I witnessed your dedication to your family, your love for them and care of them, this made you great . You will be thoroughly missed, however those left behind will forever be grateful for having been able to know you. Rest now with the assurance of everlasting peace. Heidi

Uncle Tati was very kind and loving of all of his family and than some. He had a way about him that when he told jokes or even blew jokes we all laughed with him. We all couldn't help but to love him, as he was an inspiring man. Love to all From Cousin Lindy

I send my prayers and love to all of you. I do not know if I will be able to come but I will be thinking of you all. Uncle Tati will be missed by all the family.He was a big part of all are lives.I have one big memory that stands out and that was when I was around 4or 5 yrs.old Grandma's rooster was chasing me around her house Uncle Tati ran from the front door to the back door trying to grab me and pull me into the house.I remember seeing him through the windows,as the rooster is biting my heels. He finally got me and puuled me inside. My hero,as I was so scared of that rooster.I was very young but I can remember that like it was yesterday.
Love to you all,,
