Jack Brulle Obituary

Jack Vanden Brulle November 22, 2015 San Juanico, Baja Jack Vanden Brulle, 56, a native of San Diego and long-time resident and leader in the Southern Baja California community of San Juanico, died of cancer on November 22, 2015 in La Jolla, California. His family was by his side.

Jack is survived by his wife, Angela, his son, Blaise, sisters Eva, Dawn, Melissa, and Hilde, brother, Ramon, and family and friends including John and Jeannene Moore, Jerry and Denise Bohlken, Edgar Dominguez, and Alejandro Meza.

Angela and Blaise,
Jack was a great friend and surf buddy, and incredible human being.
Always got the last laugh on me. Everyone who knew Jack loved and respected him. He made all of our lives better. He will always be in our hearts and minds.
Much aloha to you,
Mike

Angela and Blaise,

Stu and I are so saddened by Jack's passing. Our hearts hurt for you and we want you to know you are in our prayers. Jack always had a smile on his face and a helping hand. When we get back to San Juanico we will always see that smile when the sun glints off the waves in the bay.

Abrazos,
