In loving memory of sweet Michael Jonathan Cortez

My name is Marilyn and I am the sister of Michael Jonathan Cortez.

 

We are devastated to share that Michael passed away on September 13, 2021. He was an amazing father, son, brother and friend loved by all. Michael also known as Jonathan was an upbeat positive person. He would put a smile on your face as he walked through a room. He was quite the charmer to most. He had such a loving generous heart. We had faith that Jonathan would find his place in the world to shine and be happy. Jonathan was a person who loved going out eating he loved his seafood and riding his motorcycle. He also loved going to the casino where he would loss some and also win some but no matter what it was something enjoyed the most.

 

His life was cut short due to gun violence. One bullet took his life. I never thought I will be sitting here doing this asking god why he chose him to leave us so early. I am heart broken I can’t bare the pain nor the thought that Jonathan will not be here with us anymore. I’m praying that you are ok in heaven.

 Jonathan leaves behind 3 children, mother,father,brother,and sisters. To help the family in the time of need. This means much to our family and we thank you in advance from the bottom of our hearts.
