Jose Marcial Coreas, or best known as Papa, passed away on July 19, 2025. He was born on April 27, 1945, in San Salvador, El Salvador. Papa loved spending time out on the water, playing basketball, caring for his dogs, and gardening. Above all, he cherished moments with his grandchildren and was fiercely protective of his family and home. He will be remembered for his warm heart and devotion to those he loved. Papa is now home with the Lord and his wife, Cinia Coreas, also known as Mama. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him.
