Martha Ruiz

April 29, 1962 — July 11, 2025

Canutillo

Maria Martha Ruiz passed away peacefully in her home on Friday, July 11th, 2025, surrounded by her loving husband and children. She was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, sister, and friend. She will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

Martha is survived by her husband, Fernando Jesus Ruiz, and their four children; Carlos Fernando Ruiz, David Michael Ruiz, Dominick Andrew Ruiz, and Camryn Alisa Ruiz. She is also survived by her parents, Raul and Teresa Heredia, and her sister, Virginia Heredia.

Born in El Paso, Texas, Martha spent her early childhood in California, where she first developed her lifelong love of music and dance. As an adult, she filled her home with joy; singing, humming, and dancing to music of all kinds. Her warmth and vibrant spirit were felt in every room she entered.

Martha dedicated her life to raising her four children and was their biggest supporter and fiercest advocate. She deeply cherished spending time with her family and loved to travel, especially to Disneyland and to state and national parks. These places brought her peace, adventure, and happiness.

Words cannot truly express how deeply she will be missed. We invite you to join us in remembering and celebrating her beautiful life.
