Jorge Sandoval

Jorge Sandoval, age 32, of Chicago Heights, IL, passed away on October 27, 2025. He was born January 21, 1993 in Ciudad Guzmán, Mexico, to his loving parents, Vicente Sandoval and Maria Alcazar.
Jorge attended Bloom High School, where his love for fitness and personal development began to take shape. Later, he pursued a career as a personal trainer - not just to guide others physically, but to help them feel confident, healthy, and mentally strong. His clients often became his friends, inspired by his encouragement and genuine care.
Jorge was engaged to the love of his life, Julianna Martinez, whom he met in an unexpected and beautiful way. While visiting Vienna, IL, a mutual friend connected them. Though distance separated them, they exchanged heartfelt letters for three years before finally meeting in person - a testament to the depth of their bond and Jorge's loyal spirit.
He was a devoted father who found joy in spending time with his daughters - whether gaming together or simply being present. A true foody, Jorge also loved trying new dishes and sharing meals with the people he loved. He had a strategic mind and a competitive edge - no one could beat him at chess, a fact he carried with playful pride.
Jorge lived with intention and heart. He wanted others to feel strong - not just in body, but in spirit. He led by example, showing that true strength is found in kindness, dedication, and love.
Jorge is survived by his fiancée, Julianna Martinez; daughters, Alessandra and Isabella Sandoval; parents, Maria Alcazar and Vicente Sandoval; siblings, Marko, Eduardo, Hector, Luis, and Julia; and many aunts, nieces and nephews.
