Jose Vicente Argueta
December 17, 1935 – October 21, 2024
Jose Vicente Argueta was born in El Salvador on December 17, 1935. In 1956, he met Berta Marina Espinoza, with whom he raised five children: Ana, Conchy, Armando, Isabel, and Martin. In 1982, due to challenging social conditions, the family relocated to Canada.
Known affectionately as “Abuelo,” Jose was beloved by all who knew him. He enjoyed repairing things and helping with household tasks. He shared a close friendship with God, prayed continually as encouraged in 1 Thessalonians 5:17, and read his Bible faithfully. His favorite hymn was “Far Beyond the Sun.”
On October 21, 2024, surrounded by family, Jose was called to rest by the Lord. He leaves behind his wife of 67 years, Berta; five children; two sons-in-law; one daughter-in-law; thirteen grandchildren: Alex (Erin), Tehani (Andrea), Tania (Matthew), Osmar (Marlene), Samuel, Francesca, Kevin, Anthony, Nathalie, Jose (Laura), Samuel (Sofia), Rosabel, and Christian; and nine great-grandchildren: Aaliyah, Ashton, Elliana, Nico, Matteo, Jaxxon, Leylani, Stephano, and Baby.
We hold the blessed hope of reuniting with him upon the Lord’s Second Coming. Maranatha!
