John Joseph Vela Obituary

We are sad to announce that on November 13, 2024 we had to say goodbye to John Joseph Vela of Santa Ana, California, born in Westminster, California. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.

In the hush of twilight, as the stars twinkle in silent homage, we reflect on the legacy John leaves behind and his impact on the lives of his loved ones. Though John may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the memories held dear by his family and friends, a guiding light that illuminates their paths in times of darkness.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Alice Lupe Balandran Vela and Felix Vargas Vela; and his sister Rosemary Vela Casas. He is survived by: his sisters, Juanita Vela and Tina R.
