Ramiro and Teresa immigrated to the United States in the early 1960's. Ramiro was a hard worker & provider for his family including running his own businesses; Valadez Investments (Cattle Hide Business), Las Cazuelas Mexican Restaurant and various Real Estate Entities.

Ramiro's pride and joy was his family. He loved spending time with his family. He looked forward to road trips to his favorite destinations; Mexico, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas. He loved celebrating all of life's milestones surrounded by family and friends.

In his older years, his favorite past time was sitting out in his patio while listening to his favorite music. Ramiro's hard work, tireless work ethic, and dedication to every part of life is a direct reflection of his children's and grandchildren's success to which they continue to emulate daily.  He was always the brightest star, the life of a party, and a selfless person.

He was one of a kind who will be dearly missed and whose legacy will forever live on in our hearts. The Valadez family would like to thank everyone for your thoughtfulness and prayers during this difficult time.

Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him.

May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
