In Loving Memory of Arturo Ruiz

Arturo Ruiz, age 48, passed away on Saturday, January 24, 2026. His passing has left an immeasurable void in the hearts of all who knew and loved him.

Arturo was a devoted father to his beloved children, Aliya and Arturo Jr. He was a cherished son to Heriberto and Amelia, and a loving brother to Heriberto Jr., Efren, Teresa (Roberto), Vanesa (Jose), and Isaac. He was also a proud and caring uncle to Victoria, Isabel, Efren Jr., Sophie, Rey, Mason, Roberto Jr., and Nicolas, each of whom held a special place in his heart.

Arturo was the kind of person who could light up a room with his humor. He loved to joke, laugh, and bring smiles to those around him. He had a warm spirit, a generous heart, and a deep love for his family. He was selfless in every sense of the word—always putting others first and doing everything he could to support and protect the people he loved.

More than anything, Arturo will be remembered for his love, his laughter, and his big heart. His presence brought comfort, joy, and strength to his family and friends, and his memory will live on through the countless lives he touched.

Though he is no longer with us, Arturo’s love remains—carried in the hearts of his children, family, and all who were blessed to know him. He will be deeply missed and forever loved.
