Help Joseph's Family Through This Heartache

We are in need of our family's, friend's and communities help!!

On 12/13/2024, we unexpectedly lost my wonderful son-in-law Joseph Myles Machado who was only 27 yrs old. My daughter Analysia lost her best friend & the love of her life and his 3 mo. old son Malekai or baby Kai as most call him, he lost the best Daddy in the world. He was a partner, a father, a son, a brother, a Tio, a grandson and a great friend! Joseph was loved my by so many people. He made it hard not to love him! He was a big jokester with his big contagious smile, funny attitude, and his love for talking sh*t back & forth. He could make anyone laugh despite the mood you might be in. He was the type of man who would be there for anyone who was in need of help, the type of man who give the shirt off his back if he had too. He loved to play sports softball and cornhole, he also loved to watch sports.

Joseph had 4 brothers & 2 sisters who he was close to. They looked up to Joseph and had a lot of respect for him. They would go to him for advice or just to check up on each other almost every day to see how they were doing. Joseph is also survived by his Dad Jose "Chemi" Machado and Mom Cathy Ortega. We were happy to call him our son-in-law and I know in my heart he really would have been one day!

With this being so unexpected, we are in need of raising funds to cover funeral expenses and to be sure Joseph get's the best services we can give him. Any remaining funds will go into an account for his son, Kai. So we are asking you to PLEASE, PLEASE DONATE WHAT YOU CAN, ANYTHING HELPS TOWARDS THE OVER ALL GOAL! If you prefer to Zelle, please contact me (Jennifer Laguna) at [phone redacted].

We want to thank all of you in advance from the bottom of our hearts with any help you can provide.
