Surrounded by his family, José passed away peacefully in his home in West Bloomfield, after a courageous battle against cancer, on February 4th, 2017.

He studied mechanical and industrial engineering at the Federico Villarreal National University of Lima, before continuing on to post-graduate studies at Georgia Tech University in Atlanta. José moved to Toronto, Canada where he completed an M.B.A. at York University and began his engineering career. José resided in Toronto for 17 years where he had his two daughters before moving to Michigan.
 

He had a love for cars and the American car industry. This great passion showed through in his dedication to both Chrysler, where he worked as an engineer for 20 years, and Ford Motor Company for over 5 years, where he was in the Ford Hispanic Network. A dedicated, honest, hard-working professional; he has been recognized over the years for his achievements through numerous awards. He enjoyed Indy car racing and held an Austin Healy Club membership.
 

An adventurer at heart, Jose loved the water. This love included surfing, fishing and spending time on his boat the "Pisco Sour" where he enjoyed hosting and serving pisco sours. 'Mi casa es tu casa' (my house is your house) was one of the mottos he lived by; he will be remembered for his kindness, charisma and welcoming nature.
