In loving memory of Jorge Alberto Negrete.
Our beloved Jorge, a loving son, grandson, brother, uncle, nephew, and friend went to be with the Lord at the age of 31 on August 2, 2023, in San Angelo, Texas. A prayer service will be held at 6:00 P.M. on Wednesday, August 9, 2023, at Harper Funeral Home. The funeral service and burial will be scheduled in Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila, Mexico.
Jorge was born September 13, 1991, in San Angelo, Texas, to Jorge Luis Negrete and Martha Solorio. At the age of five, he went to live with his uncle and aunt, Jesus and Amalia Ibarra. He attended Reagan Elementary, Edison Junior High, and graduated from Central High School in 2010. He was a proud member of the Mighty Bobcat Band and graduated in the top 10% of his class. Jorge attended Texas Tech University from 2010 until 2014 when he returned to his hometown of San Angelo.
Jorge is preceded in death by his father, Jorge Luis Negrete, and grandparents, Arcadio and Olivia Negrete, of Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila.
Jorge is survived by family in Ciudad Acuña: his mother, Martha Solorio, sisters Norma Negrete and Janely Negrete, nieces Aylin Negrete and Alison Flores, and nephew Gerardo Negrete.
He is also survived by family in San Angelo: his Tia Amalia and Tio Jesus Ibarra, his cousins who counted him as a brother, Joshua Ibarra and Jessica Ramirez and brother-in-law Zachary Ramirez, and nephews and nieces Nikolai Espinoza, Melanie, Eric, Aubrielle, and Jeremiah Ramirez. Lastly, his beloved cat, Cassius.
We also want to acknowledge his uncle and aunt, Jesus and Amalia Ibarra, who selflessly raised him like their own son with love and care. They provided him with a nurturing home and played a significant role in shaping the person he became. Their unwavering support and guidance helped Jorge grow into a loving, funny, and charismatic individual who loved music and dreamed of becoming a physician. He was always making family and friends laugh.
Jorge, you will never know how much we love you and will miss you. May your soul rest in peace.
“Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times and in every way. The Lord be with all of you”. - 2 Thessalonians 3:16
