Ofelio C. Espinoza, Jr.

Ofelio C. "O.E." Espinoza, Jr., age 48, of Toledo, beloved brother and uncle, passed away unexpectedly. He was born on August 31, 1965 to Ofelio C. Espinoza, Sr. and Esperanza (Salinas) Espinoza.

He was generous and thoughtful man, his family will remember him for his robust personality and how he was always the life of the party. Ofelio had a wonderful personality and a way with people; he knew what to say to make someone feel as if they were the most important person around. He took great pride in his heritage and family (especially his nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews). Ofelio was a talented man who enjoyed photography, cooking and baking and simply enjoying nature, especially being near the water and the beach.

His family will dearly miss him, his personality, and sense of humor and will forever cherish the homemade personalized items he created for them.

Left to cherish his memory are his sisters, Patty (Steve) Brescol and Maria (Rick) Dartt; very special nieces and nephews, Christopher (Katrina) Espinoza, Hope Ann (Jimmy) Bryson, Michael (Danielle) Ullery and Nikki (Joe) Ullery; many loving and very important great-nieces and great-nephews and aunt, Olga Young.
