Jorge Leon
July 20, 1932 — June 28, 2018
Jorge Leon, 85, was born on July 20, 1932 in Mexico to Benjamin Leon and Dolores Galvez and entered into eternal rest on June 28, 2018 in Whittier, California.
With hard working hands, Jorge was a chef in the restaurant industry for over 50 years. Jorge enjoyed a good game at Rummikub and loved his scratchers! You could also find him in his garden with all of his plants being the greenthumb that he was. Above all, Jorge loved to spend time with his family, whether it be cooking them an incredible meal, or joining them at the casino. Jorge was a family man and will be missed by all those who knew and loved him.
Jorge leaves behind his loving family: Wife, Josefina Leon of Whittier, California, Daughter, Sylvia Salcedo (Luis) of Whittier, California, Daughter, Evangelina Dayrit (Carlos) of Cerritos, California, Son, Benjamin Leon (Teresa) of Whittier, California, Daughter, Maria Corona of Downey, California, Daughter, Georgina Santamaria (Frank) of Victorville, California, Daughter, Josefina Rodarte (Frank) of Whittier, California, Daughter, Sandra Hernandez (Ben) of Whittier, California, Daughter, Alejandra Leon of Whittier, California, nineteen loving grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren, as well as several other family members and friends.
