Ismael Diaz Obituary
November 1, 1990 - December 8, 2024
Modesto, California - It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Ismael "Milo" Diaz, age 34, who tragically left us on December 8, 2024, in Modesto, California. Milo was a loving father, devoted friend, and a source of light to all who knew him. His loss is felt deeply by all who had the privilege of being a part of his life.
Milo's greatest pride and accomplishment was his daughter, Juliana. He was an amazing "girl dad," always striving to be a positive role model for her and ensuring she knew how deeply he loved her. His spirit, enthusiasm, and positivity were contagious, and he brought joy and encouragement to everyone around him. Milo's commitment to fitness was a reflection of his drive to better himself and inspire others to do the same.
Milo was known for his unwavering loyalty and kindness as a friend. He always had time for others, offering support, laughter, and a sense of camaraderie that will be sorely missed by those who were fortunate enough to call him a friend.
A celebration of Milo's life will be held on December 20, 2024, at 11:00 a.m. at Salas Brothers Funeral Chapel, 419 Scenic Dr, Modesto, CA 95350. All who knew him are invited to join us in honoring his memory and the positive impact he had on all our lives.
Milo's legacy of love, strength, and positivity will live on through his daughter, family, and friends. He will never be forgotten.

My childhood friend I don't know where to start Ishamel (even though you dislike that name) you always wanted to be called "MILO" We first met at Kirschen Elementary school. We had Mr.Bryan for 5th grade and Mr.Oliveria for 6th grade. Thank you for being such an amazing great friend to me and to the rest of our friends. That contagious smile and laugh of yours will definitely be missed. I'm still lost for word. Please continue to watch over your family especially your baby girl Rest easy my brother! Much love n respect Justice will be served!!! Fly high
