Heaven just got a lot livelier with his arrival. Manuel Montes Jr. went home to be with our Lord on July 21, 2026. He went peacefully surrounded by the love of his family.
Manny was born on June 22, 1976, in Tracy, California, to Manuel Montes Sr and Rosa Castillo Montes. He proudly served in the United States Army for 8 years before being medically discharged, followed by a successful 20 year career in the sales industry, which he greatly enjoyed.
He will be lovingly remembered and truly missed for his natural ability to make everyone laugh and for his high energy and fun loving spirit that filled every room he walked into. Above all, he will be remembered and missed for the immense love that he had for his family and the countless ways he showed it every day.
He was preceded in death by his father, Manuel Montes Sr. He is survived by his wife, Isabel Montes; his 6 children, Ivan Eduardo Montes (wife Hali), Jose Ramon Murillo (wife Denise), Adrian Manuel Montes, Danielle Murillo, Yareli Montes Lozano (husband Adrian), and Ilianna Michelle Murillo. His 4 grandchildren: Lionel Adriel Lozano, Ezekiel Noel Montes, Adelina Montes, and Jaziel Manuel Lozano. As well as his mother, Rosa Montes, and sister Gwendolyn Montes, and a large extended family that also greatly cherished him and will also truly miss him.
