Jose Pinto
Obituary
Jose Pinto died on Feb. 3 in Royal Oaks.
He was born in Sinanche, Yucatan, Mexico on July 20,1934. In the 1960s, he moved to Watsonville with his wife Esther and his only child Jardiel.
In 1984 Mr. Pinto became a grandpa for the first time and from that moment on he dedicated himself to being the best grandpa he could be. His hobbies were reading, gardening, listening to music and spending time with his family.
His wife was the center of his universe. They barely spent moments apart during their 57 years together. They often went in together at the same time for their doctor appointments. When the doctor would walk in to check their vitals, he would always have them check Esther first. When the doctor would get to him and say it was his turn to get his heart checked he would hold Esther's hand and say, "but you already checked my heart, she is right here."
His love for his wife and his family were very strong and there was nothing in the world more important to him.
Mr. Pinto is survived by his siblings Miguel Pinto, Fedelina Aguilar, Rosa Cervantes, Selmy Alvarez and four grandchildren.
Mehl's Colonial Chapel was entrusted with the funeral arrangements.
