November 20, 1966 – August 21, 2024
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Israel Ernesto Perez on Wednesday, August 21, 2024. Israel was a beloved husband, father, brother, and friend who touched the lives of many.
He is survived by his devoted wife, Rhonda, and his four cherished children: Joel, Matthew, Mackenzie, and Joshua. He also leaves behind his loving sister Yanira, and many of extended family members and dear friends. Born in El Salvador, Israel moved to Canada in pursuit of a better life. It was here that he met Rhonda, and together they built a beautiful family, which became the center of his world. Israel was known for his hard work, determination, and the joy he brought to those around him. He had a remarkable ability to make friends effortlessly and embraced life with enthusiasm.
The family extends their deepest gratitude to the Brantford General Hospital, Hamilton General Hospital, and Stedman’s Community Hospice for the exceptional care and compassion shown to Israel in his final days. A special thank you also goes out to Latham Pools, Israel’s workplace, for their unwavering support to him and his family during this difficult time. We are also profoundly thankful to the family and friends who stood by us and offered their support.
Cremation has taken place. A memorial gathering will be held at a later date.
