Joseph was the cherished son of Joseph and Marcella Arellano and the loving siblings, Mary and Matthew Arellano.  He also leaves behind several nephews, aunts, uncles and extended family who will miss him dearly.

A true outdoorsman, Joseph found solace in nature and had a deep love for hunting and fishing.  These passions were more than hobbies to him; they were a way of life.  He dreamed of a career in law enforcement, driven by his desire to protect and serve his community, a goal he pursued with great dedication.  Joseph’s legacy will be carried on by his family and friends, who will forever remember his strength, passion and unwavering love for those around him.  May he rest in peace reunited with those who preceded him, forever in the arms of God whom he loved.
