Ricardo Medrano Cortes, 80, was born on February 7, 1946, in Matehuala, Mexico, to parents Alfonso and Elvia, and passed away on September 18, 2026. He was a longtime resident of Houston, Texas.
Ricardo shared 53 years of marriage with his wife, Amparo. Their life together stood as a quiet testament to devotion, constancy, and the enduring strength of love.
A true baseball fan, Ricardo found joy in the game and followed it with loyal enthusiasm, cheering for the Astros, the Dodgers, and the Yankees. Yet, above all else, he loved his family—holding close the people who mattered most and showing that love through everyday presence, gentle support, and genuine affection.
A visitation will be held at Advantage Funeral & Cremation Services, 7010 Chetwood Dr, Houston, Texas 77081, on September 26, 2026, from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm.
