Obituary for Jimmy Gonzalez
Print
Jimmy Gonzalez, of Lowell, died unexpectedly on June 17, 2021, at his home in Lowell, aged 56 years. He meant the world to Lorelei L. Hoey, and was the love of her life.
Born in Jersey City, a son of Mercedes Gonzalez Torres and Carmen M. Martinez, he received his early education in the Jersey City schools before moving to Lowell in 1977, where he finished at Lowell High School.
One hot summer day in 1983, Jimmy locked eyes with Lorelei's at the South Common Pool, sparking a romance that flourished for over 37 years. It was truly "love at first sight”.
Jimmy loved camping and watching football. He also enjoyed a good challenge - whether a game of dominos, chess, basketball, or a quick foot race. He was a great cook, loved flying kites, going fishing, and spending time at the ocean...always wanting everything set up by 6 AM! Most of all, Jim was a loving, supportive, and devoted family man who will be dearly missed by all who knew him.
In addition to Lorelei, he is survived by two sons, Casey J. Gonzalez and his fiancée Katie Sullivan, and Ramsey J. Gonzalez; and one daughter, Sabrina L. Gonzalez, all of Lowell; three sisters, Dalia Burgos of Lowell, Carmen L. Gonzalez of New Jersey, and Lourdes L. Gonzalez of Puerto Rico, and many cousins, nieces, nephews, and close friends.
HIS VISITATION WILL BE HELD ON WEDNESDAY at the MORSE-BAYLISS FUNERAL HOME, 122 Princeton Boulevard, Lowell, FROM 4 to 8 PM. His Funeral Service will be held at the Funeral Home on Thursday at 10 a.m. Interment is private.
