Johnny Alberto Borja's Obituary
Johnny Albert Borja was born 08/03/1993 to his loving parents Elvira & Domingo Borja. He was the cutest and chubbiest baby ever. He always managed to make his family laugh, even from the moment he was born and took his first baby photo. He had the most contagious laugh & funniest personality. Johnny was such a giving person, even if he didn’t have anything for himself. He took up boxing at the age of 25 and loved to run and exercise with his dog Moya, aka his daughter. He was a born again Christian who was always trying to spread the word of God to everyone he came in contact with. He even managed to help his Dad believe in God and start going to church. He sported his grandmother’s home made wooden crosses everywhere he went, trying to make sure everyone was saved. He made no excuses to attend church. He would walk to and from church when he didn’t have a ride. He was a true man of God and we know he is shining his little light down on us from heaven. Johnny is survived by his loving mother Elvira, his best friend and oldest brother Israel, who has adopted his dog/daughter Moya, his bossy sister Jessica who he loved dearly and considered as a second mom, his big hearted brother Ruben who was always there to help him out of trouble and stick up for him when Jessica was mad at him. He was so proud to be an uncle to his nephews Jose & Jeremiah & highly respected his brother-n-law Jose. He will be greatly missed by all his friends, family and all that knew him. It will never be the same without him. But we know he missed his father and is enjoying heaven with him now. He will forever, be in our hearts and will still make us laugh from heaven, with all the good memories we have of him.
