Elisandro Ramirez Hoyos, known to all as Elix, entered eternal rest on Saturday April 25, 2026, at the age of 92 in San Antonio, Texas.

Elix was born on July 1, 1933, to Isabel Ramirez and Carlos Hoyos in Poth, Texas. He was the third youngest out of 11 children.

Elix contributed his community in many ways. He proudly served his country as an airman in the United States Air Force.  From there, he went onto work in civil service at Fort Sam Houston and retired after 35 years of dedicated service. He also served his community as a Freemason.

Elix was a loving husband to his wife Loli. They spent 58 years together and enjoyed hitting the casinos. In his younger years he enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, and cookouts with family and friends.

Elix was preceded in death by his parents, his beloved wife Dolores Martinez Hoyos, son, Johnny Martinez Hoyos, 10 siblings: Santos, Raul, Ramiro, Roy, Rudy, Mary, Sophia, Hope, Charlie and Frances.

He is survived by his daughter Orie Hoyos Vasquez (Raul Sanchez), grandchildren: Amanda Vasquez, Jonathan Hoyos Vasquez, Johnny Justin Hoyos, Jessica Hoyos Salazar (Augie Salazar); great-granddaughter, Olivia Ann Bazany Vasquez.

Thank you to the entire staff at the Lopez Homes Assisted Living for all their love, care, and support.
