In Loving Memory of Jesus ‘Chuy’ Gutiérrez
With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved father, Jesus Gutierrez, who passed away on February 24, 2026, at the age of 51.
Jesus was born on November 20, 1974, to Ester Gutierrez and the late Amadeo Gutierrez. From a young age, he carried the strength, determination, and work ethic that would define his life.
He was funny, hardworking, loving, strong — and in our eyes, the perfect dad. He spent most of his life working on his big trucks, always making sure everything was running right. Some of our most cherished memories are of him under the hood, asking us to hold the flashlight — and of course, telling us we weren’t holding it right. Those moments, filled with laughter (and a little yelling), are memories we will treasure forever.
Jesus showed his love through action. He worked tirelessly to provide for his family and made sure we always felt protected. His strength wasn’t just in his hands, but in his heart. He loved deeply, laughed loudly, and lived fully.
He is survived by his loving mother, Ester Gutierrez, and his siblings: Rosie Ramirez, Amadeo Gutierrez, and Belinda Gutierrez. He was preceded in death by his father, Amadeo Gutierrez, and his brother, Ramiro Gutierrez.
His greatest pride and joy were his children: his oldest and only daughter, Alexandria Marie Gutierrez, and his sons, Jesus Jr Gutierrez, Dominic Gutierrez, and Aaron Xavier Gutierrez. Being their father was the role he carried most proudly.
Above all, Jesus loved his wife, Mercedes García, with all his heart and soul. Their love was strong, loyal, and unwavering — a true partnership built on devotion, sacrifice, and deep affection. Together, they built a family rooted in love.
Though our hearts are broken, we find comfort in knowing his love, strength, and lessons will live on through each of us. He may be gone from our sight, but he will never be gone from our hearts.
Forever loved. Forever missed.
And like my dad always said - todo pa delante y nada para tras and NEVER give up.
