While attending UTEP he began training for a military life in the U.S. Marine Corps. He will be remembered fondly by his friends and family for being a kind and gentle...
Tito passed away on May 3, 2012 on his 22nd birthday after an all too short life. After St. Clements he attended El Paso High School where he was a graceful swimmer on the Swim Team.

Tito was an avid chess player while a member of the El Paso High Chess Club and an active member in the ACTS Retreats with St. Patrick's Cathedral. While attending UTEP he began training for a military life in the U.S. Marine Corps.
He will be remembered fondly by his friends and family for being a kind and gentle soul. His strong sense of justice was equal to his compassion. He was a special person, loyal and generous to a fault with a unique sense of humor that made everyone laugh. The joy he brought to all who were fortunate to know him will be missed greatly. He leaves a void in our hearts that cannot be filled. He is survived by his parents, Dolph and Dana Quijano, who will always have an infinite love for their son. His sister, Whitney Blaine (Jay) and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephews and all his friends will forever mourn his passing.
