Juan G. Cordero
Born in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, Juan G. Cordero passed away on July 14, 2025, surrounded by loved ones. He later made his home in Jersey City, NJ, where he built a life rooted in love, laughter, and hard work.
Juan was a devoted husband to his beloved wife, Haydee Cordero, and a proud father to Amelia Cruz, Noel Cordero, and Juan Cordero Jr. He leaves behind a legacy of 11 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, and one more on the way-all of whom he cherished deeply.
Known for his good heart, joyful spirit, and unwavering dedication to his family, Juan was loved by everyone who knew him. He had a great sense of humor, a loving soul, and a tireless work ethic, spending over 30 years at Amoco Gas Station. He love playing his lotto and scratch offs. More than anything, he was a great father, a true friend, and a man who brought light into the lives of others.
He will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
