Jose F. Acevedo

It is with profound sadness and disbelief that we announce the tragic and unexpected death of Jose Ferdinand Acevedo, aka Coco, who was taken from us far too soon on November 7, 2024. Coco was 2 weeks away from beginning a new chapter of his life, looking forward to marrying his Fiance. His untimely death is a heartbreaking loss, and while we mourn the life taken too soon, we will always cherish the incredible person he was—a loving partner, brother, uncle, a loyal friend – a man whose Loyalty, and love for others knew no bounds. He fiercely protected and always showed up for those he cared about. Coco was selfless, he put the needs of others before his own, offering trust, loyalty, and support without thinking twice and that was a true testament to his character. He held the brotherhood he had with many to the highest standard. His devotion to family and friends was honorable. Whether offering a helping hand or sharing a heartfelt story, Coco made those around him feel seen, heard, valued and appreciated. He took great pride in everything he accomplished in life. He spoke proudly to everyone of all his plans, Coco held no secrets of what his goals in life were. He was humble and so simple, he enjoyed the little things in life like a good cup of coffee. Coco was known for his loud personality, playful energy and high spirit. Though he may no longer be with us, the love and light he shared will continue to resonate in our hearts forever. Coco will be greatly missed by his family. He is survived by his fiance, sister, many nieces and nephews, brothers and friends.
