Mr. Jiminez was born in Santa Barbara, California, a son to Mrs. Juanita Gutierrez Jiminez and the late Ernest Jiminez. Mr. Jiminex had a degree in Ornamental Horticulture from California Polytechnic State University and was a certified arborist.
Family was everything to Javier, and he took immense pride in his son, Alexander which he never missed an opportunity to boast about. His love for his wife, Lisa, was enduring and wholehearted, shining through in everything he did.
Javier's life was a tapestry of love, laughter, and adventure. He was passionate about many things, including fishing, golfing, and skateboarding. He enjoyed playing the harmonica and loved to sing karaoke. The outdoors was his sanctuary, and he enjoyed exploring nature's beauty.

Javier had an extraordinary gift for making connections.
