Lillie Salmeron Ruiz born July 4, 1951 was granted her angel wings on November 25, 2020. Her final days were spent surrounded by her three beautiful children and family. Although she was tiny and frail, she was a fighter giving us all courage and hope. She reminded us all the preciousness of life. Lillie’s life would seem short to many, but those blessed to know her know the quality of existence far exceeds the quantity of time in which one lives. Her gentle smile and tiny fingers spent many hours folded praying over those she loved.
Lillie is survived by her loving children: daughter Debbie Silva and son in law Joel Silva, daughter Erica Alvarado and son in law Alfonso Alvarado and son Rudy Ruiz Jr and daughter in law April Ruiz. Her 6 grandchildren Celeste Ruiz, Jonathon Silva, Riley Angel, Lillian Ruiz, Faith Silva, and Jasmine Alvarado. 6 siblings and their spouses Adolf and wife Nelda Salmeron Jr., David and wife Rosa Salmeron, Leonard and wife Sandy Salmeron, Silvia and husband Joseph Vallejo, Richard and wife Maria Salmeron and Delfina and husband Paul Garcia. As well as 24 nieces and nephews.
Lillie is proceeded in death by her father Adolf Salmeron Sr. And mother Saturnina Salmeron.
