Honoring Tito Jess: The Best Horse Racing Aficionado Ever!

One of my two uncles, Jesus Agdigos (who I call Tito Jess), passed away at the age of 78 on August 29, 2024. He was born on December 25, 1945, months after the end of World War II. He came to America in March 1984 with my mother, Rebecca Agdigos, and my other uncle, Fernando Agdigos (who I call Tito Ding). Tito Jess used to work as a sky captain for many different airlines, including Delta Air Lines, and he also worked a number of years at Los Angeles International Airport.

I will remember Tito Jess for being a fan of horse racing. He would take me to places like Santa Anita Park, Los Alamitos Race Course, and the old Hollywood Park, allowing me to enjoy the "Sport of Kings" and the emotions that come with every race. He enjoyed life to the fullest and is survived by two nephews and numerous grandnephews and grandnieces. He will be buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Long Beach, California, on September 18, 2024.

I am planning to raise $10,000 to help finance the burial and last rites of who has been an inspiration to his friends and family. I hope you can offer your help so that his legacy and his story will be secured and take flight. Thank you for your generosity and support!
