Obituary published on Legacy.com by Palmer Funeral Homes - Guisinger Chapel on Dec. 17, 2025.
Jose Quijada, 78, passed away on Friday, December 5, 2025, at Memorial Hospital in South Bend.
Jose was born in Tequisquiapan, Mexico, on April 14, 1947, to the late Angel and Maria (Alvarez) Quijada.
He married Terea Ugalde, and together they shared many years of life, love, and memories. Above all, Jose was a devoted husband and father, deeply loved by his family.
Over the years, Jose held many jobs, and for the past decade, he has worked in the construction industry.
Jose is survived by his children: Jose L. Quijada, Mary Ramirez, Miguel Quijada, Ma Terea Quijada, and grandchildren. His family will forever cherish his guidance, his strength, and the love he gave so generously.
A memorial service is being planned for a later date.
