San Jose Scottish Rite Foundation

it's with a heavy heart and tear-filled eyes that we come together today to share the news of Steve Alvarez's passing. We know this is a tough pill to swallow, but we want to celebrate Steve's incredible life and the love he received from so many people.

Steve was adored and cherished by everyone around him. His beautiful wife Maria Elena, along with their three amazing daughters - Mica, Stephanie, and Rebecca, meant the world to him. And let's not forget about his adorable grandson, Steven, who brought endless joy and laughter to his grandpa's life.

Born and raised in the sunny paradise of Santa Barbra, California, Steve then spread his wings and settled in San Jose with both his parents and four siblings. But his journey didn't stop there - Steve served our great nation in the Air Force, dedicating himself to protecting our freedoms with honor and bravery.

Now, instead of drowning in our sorrows, we want to honor Steve's memory in the most amazing way possible. Instead of flowers, we kindly ask you to consider donating the RiteCare Scottish Rite Childhood Language services. This incredible organization provided care and support to Steven, Steve's precious grandson. By donating, we can keep Steve's legacy alive and ensure that other children receive the same love and care that Steven did.

Let's come together as a community, friends, and family, to celebrate the life of Steve Alvarez, a man who brought so much happiness and love into our lives. We will forever hold him in our hearts, and through our actions, we can continue his legacy of spreading kindness and compassion to those in need.

Thank you all for your love, support, and beautiful memories of Steve. Let's make a difference together!
