87, passed away peacefully in his Pawtucket home on Monday, March 19, 2018 where he was surrounded by his family.
Jesus was born on December 25, 1930, in Cavite City, Philippines to Gonzalo Loreto and Crisanta Noche, also raised by his stepmom Delores Loreto. He is preceded in death by his parents, brothers Dading and Boy, and son-in-law John Miguel. He is survived by his siblings Uno, Rollie, Efren, Bert, and Tita, as well as many nieces and nephews.
In addition, the memory of his life lives on in his beloved wife of 65 years Lolita Ortega Loreto, their sons Enyong and wife Zeny, Jojie and wife Cora, and Ronald, their daughters Oneng and husband Rannie, Baves, Nene and husband Mark, Mildred, and Genel. He had 15 grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, and 2 great-great grandchildren. He helped care for most of them and his heart was so big he made them all feel like his favorite.
Jesus came to America in March 21, 1981, to provide the best life he could for his family. To him, family was number one. In his life he also made many friends. His smile stole the hearts of many people and his silly faces made everyone laugh. He cared for everyone he came in contact with, always welcoming anyone into his home and even known for persistently asking his guests to "go eat!"
Though it's hard to say goodbye, may we all be grateful for his long, happy life and always remember to take after his kindness. Let his memory live on by sharing his love for life as his beautiful soul is laid to rest.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend visitation on Saturday, March 24th from 5 - 8pm at the Keefe Funeral Home, Five Higginson Ave., Lincoln. Burial will be private.
