Joseph F Figueroa, August 15, 1964 — October 14, 2018

Obituary for Joseph F. Figueroa Joseph F Figueroa August 15, 1964 – October 14, 2018 It is with a sad heart, I, Krystena, write this: On Sunday, October 14, 2018, my father, Joseph Francisco Figueroa closed his eyes for the last time after an incredible battle to liver cancer. This is the only battle I knew my father to ever lose. Joseph Francisco Figueroa was born on August 15, 1964 in Merced, California where he grew up and attended school.

He was known as “Figgy” to many of his childhood friends. He met Melissa Rindahl in Brainerd, Minnesota during a visit with his brother in 1984. She was his reason to move to Minnesota.

They started a family and then got married in 1993. Melissa is the mother of his four children, Krystena, Joseph, Liliawna and Manuel. Although they were divorced at the time of his death they remained close.

He loved his family with all that he had. My dad was a welder and mechanic by trade. He worked in the dairy and cheese industry.

He earned a diploma in Truck Driving from Fox Valley Technical College in 2017. One of his proudest days was when he received his CDL to drive trucks. He loved old cars, rock music, summertime and the Vikings.

He is preceded in death by his father, Victor Manuel Figueroa, and his brother, Victor Manuel Figueroa Jr He is survived by his mother, Mary C Figueroa; his four children Krystena L Figueroa (32), Joseph Figueroa (27), Liliawna M Figueroa (21) and Manuel V Figueroa (19); grandchildren, Jorden (13), Devyn (6), Tia (13), Izaya (7) and Luna (2); sisters, Peggy Macias (Charlie), Carroll Buller (Michelle) and Brother Alberto Figueroa and many nieces and nephews. My dad Joe, Jose or Joseph, as many knew him will be greatly missed.

His passing is a tremendous loss for those who knew him and for those who got the opportunity to be loved by him, how lucky you are. There are no words to describe how beautiful he was. He will be sorely missed but impossible to forget.
