I never met Maria but Jorge spoke of her often and so lovingly. He was filled with so much joy over becoming a father. We may not get to share that joy with him in person, but he has his son and his wife and they are together forever.

God bless you all and may He bring you peace and love in your time of need.

Negrete Family,
I am heart broken for your loss Jorge was a wonderful young man and his Letie was a beautiful young lady. They were so in love. I still picture them standing on my front lawn last summer holding hands. They are all together now Daddy, Mommy and baby son. I am sure they are together in heaven looking down on the family right now. Our only conselation is this is what Jorge would have wanted to be with his wife and son. I know this is no consalotion for his family but this has spared Jorge so much pain. May God give you all the strength you need to cope with this horrible tragedy. You are all in my prayers.
May God give you strenght in your time of sorrow.

Jorge was not only my college room-mate, he was my friend... my family. I can not express how full of sorrow I was at hearing that he was gone, along with his most loved ones. May God grace them with peace, and his remaining loved ones with the strength to suffer his loss.

Jorge,

I didn't know that I can do this until recently. I would like to tell you that I will always cherish the fun times we shared. Thanks for always dancing with me. I loved that. We would just laugh the whole time without a reason. But most of all I will remember all the rides we took on Juan's bike. Those are memories. You were the only one I trusted to ride with. I miss your laugh. I know that we lost contact for a while. Having family does that, sad but true. But whatever fun times we had ( and I remember) will always be remembered. Look over your family, and when you get a chance, look over at me.

In loving memory of Jorge, Letie and Jorge, Jr.

I extend my most sincerest sympathy to the loved ones of Jorge Negrete. Jorge was a very nice person who I had the pleasure of meeting in high school. I know his not being here creates a void in your life, but know and trust God's word, as it says "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." God surely chose an awesome flower when He picked Jorge. Trust in Jesus, the Comforter, He will sustain you.

I would like to express my deepest condolences to the family. I grew up, and went to high school with Jorge. He even stood up in my quincenera. He was a perfect gentleman. Alway so kind, and very considerate. He will be truly missed. May God embrace you with peace, and comfort during this time.

Juan, Teresa, Liz and Tony;

There are no words to say, but I have to quote what Psalms 23 says

The Lord is your shepherd, and you shall not want. He will lead all of you to green pastures, and He will also lead all of you beside quiet waters, and He will restore your souls. Juan and Teresa in verse 4 it says that God is your staff and He will give you comfort.

I cannot say I've been there but my heart and my thoughts are with you and your loving family. I pray for strength and courage. Love you and forever will you be in my prays

Jorge was such a dear person. He was our tech at Meijer in Mich. City from the time I started there. His smiling face is engraved on my heart and in my mind and I can still hear his voice. He always made me smile and laugh. I will NEVER forget you George! In Loving Memory of you and your beautiful wife and baby boy. My deepest, heartfelt sympathies to the family of Jorge. You will be constantly in my thoughts and prayers. Sending much love and prayers to the precious family members who are grieving. Please know that you are not alone. George was SO very loved!

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to your family. Jorge was an incredible person who held his family in the highest regard. He was the type of person who put everyone's needs in front of his own. The fact that we all have him watching over us brings some solice to a tragic event. I wish you all the best while you begin to heal from his passing.
