Jose Negrete Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jul. 5, 2016.
Jose Jesus Sanchez Negrete Jr., 15, of Rochester, died in the midnight hours of July 1. He was taken from this earth too soon and in a tragic way. He will be greatly missed by many.

Jose, or known as Jr. to many, was attending Phoenix Academy in Rochester and looked forward to summer school. He was also preparing for his driver's license. Jr. was a very energetic boy his entire life and loved to be one step ahead of everyone — he pretty much skipped walking and went straight to running at 9 months old! He was an extremely gifted artist and loved to share this gift with everyone. You could find him all around town, at the library, or on the many bike trails "off roading." Jose was the type of person that loved to laugh and play around, never a dull or serious moment when you were with him. His smile and laugh were contagious. He will be missed by many.

Jose is survived by his mom, Monica Benavidez, stepdad, Eddie; sisters, Yadhira and Yatalia; brother, Cruz; aunt, Dana Cobarruvias (Jesus) and their five children, Luiz, Daniel, Aracely, Juan, and Amayah; aunt, Kendra (Adam) and their two sons, Colton and Vincent; uncle, Devin Kieffer; and his grandma, Annette Pudwill (Jack). He also survived by the Sanchez family, Galvan family, and Negrete family.

He is preceded in death by his grandpa, David Kieffer, and biological father, Jose Jesus Sanchez Bolanos.

A visitation for Jose will be from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. Wednesday in the River Park Chapel at Macken Funeral Home. There will be a time of remembrance starting at 6 p.m. Burial will be at a later date following cremation.

Memorials are suggested to the family.
