ESPINOSA

JULIA "JJ"

Julia, lovingly known as JJ, was a bright light whose strength, joy, and determination touched everyone who knew her.

JJ faced life's challenges with courage far beyond her years and a spirit that lifted those around her. She was known for her smile, her love of play, and her ability to bring warmth and laughter even in the hardest moments.

She is deeply loved and forever cherished by her parents, Nicolas Espinosa and Maria Saenz; and her sister, Valentina Espinosa; along with a large community of family, friends and caregivers who became family.

JJ's life was not defined by illness, but by impact , by the love she gave, the joy she shared, and the strength she inspired.

A celebration of JJ's life will be held in her honor.

Choose joy. Keep climbing. For JJ.
