Josue Antonio Burrola was born into this world on November 14, 2009 to Tony and Shelly (Green) Burrola. He was so eager to join his parents and brothers, Daniel and Cruz, that he came at exactly 27 weeks at Presbyterian Hospital in Albuquerque. Hozer weighed 2lbs, 5 oz at birth. Momma stayed with him through the next 3 months, while Poppa and brothers traveled between Grant County and Albuquerque.  Hozer’s life started as a struggle before coming home to his family, and Hozer’s life ended in a struggle as he began his journey to be with the Lord. He fought AML leukemia for 2 weeks before losing his battle on February 17, 2020 at El Paso Children's Hospital, surrounded by family.

He will be missed by family, by his best friends Nico and John, his classmates and everyone at Central Elementary, the Cobre School district, his team, church mates and the whole community that came together for him here and in AZ, CA, CO, AL, OR, TN, TX, PA and KY.  He loved you all as you loved him.

He so loved to bother his big brothers and love on them afterwards. Poppa called him a missile: he would come out of nowhere, destroy his brothers, then disappear.  He loved soccer, wrestling, time in the woods with Grandpa Tony, Nino Joe, Nino Santiago and his cousin-brother Adriano. He loved mass on Sunday and running around bare foot outside with his animals.  He loved his piano and piano teacher Callie.  Hozer loved you all. We will all miss his little voice and his love.

He is survived by his parents, Momma and Poppa; his brothers Dan, Cruzy and cousin-brother Adriano; Grandparents Antonio and Paula Burrola of Virden NM; Ronny and Sharron Green of Tyrone NM; Tias Dolores (Dodo), Melissa (Nina), Irene (Mommy) of Virden, Tia Patricia and Tio Mario Martinez of Silver City NM; Uncle Ronald and Aunt Rebekah Green of Silver City NM, Uncle Daniel and Aunt Andrea Moser of Silver City NM; Cousins Mullin Green of TN, Claira Green of Peru and Lindsey Green of Silver City, Isaiah Moser and Zayla Moser of Silver City, Sylvia (Joey) Hoben and Silas his apprentice in training,  Eric and Jazzmyn Martinez of Malmstrom AFB MT, Anissa Martinez of Albuquerque, and Adriano of Virden;  numerous great and great-great aunts, uncles and cousins. He was preceded in death by his infant cousin Ella Green and a special brother, Dakota Woodard. Services are pending. Thank you to all who loved him, and may God bless you all.  Arrangements are with Terrazas Funeral Chapels “Trusted care for the ones you love” ~ 575-537-0777.  To send condolences, visit www.terrazasfuneralchapels.com.
