Joseph Andrew Alderete

September 15, 2019 - January 30, 2022

Our lil warrior, Joseph Andrew Alderete, gained his angel wings on Jan 30, 2022 at the tender age of 2. He was born in San Antonio, TX on Sept 15, 2019. He gave his all and fought with such strength until Jesus called him home to celebrate with Him and his angels. We LOVE and MISS him more than words can say. While his time with us was gone far too quickly, we will hold memories of our “Papas”, “Mijo”, “Tata”, “Tatasito”, “the Outlaw”, “Guerito”, “Gordo”, “El Rey”, “LJ”, “Chunky Monkey” and “Little Buddy” close in our hearts. We will smile and think of him fondly as we remember his grunting when he disagreed and his side eye as he checked out who and what was in the room. We’ll laugh when we remember his pointing finger clearly communicating he wanted you to leave his room. But most of all we’ll never forget when he shared his inner sparkle as he made “Ojitos” at us or his endless sense of humor as he smiled while sticking out his tongue. His Mom and Dad will always hear him calling “Mama and Tata”. God speed Papas. Until we see you again Mijo! He is preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Andrew Lopez. Joseph Andrew is survived by his loving parents: Joseph and Annette, big sisters: Aundria Aleece and Araceli Jacqueline, big FUR brother: Aries, maternal grandmother: Alicia Lopez, paternal grandparents: Francisco and Estefana Alderete, aunts: Mari (Daniel), Claudine and Catherine, uncles: Francisco (Lisa), Joshua (Viviana), Jeremiah, Jacob, cousins: Maria Alejandra, Sebastian, Augustine, Kristin, Alexandra, Ellie Avery and other extended family and friends.
