Adrian Cornejo-Ramos

Adrian Ramos was born on April 5, 1992, in Oakland, California, and passed away on December 14, 2025, in Sacramento, California, where he lived most of his life. He is now at peace, resting in the presence of God. He leaves behind a family who loved him deeply and will forever carry his memory in their hearts.

Adrian was known for his intelligence, his humor, and his unwavering loyalty. He could be serious and thoughtful, yet playful with those lucky enough to truly know him. Whether he was quiet or talkative depended on the person, but if Adrian opened up to you, it meant you mattered. His big, unmistakable gummy smile, his clean cut style, and the pride he took in his appearance were just part of who he was. He was a hard worker who believed in taking care of what he had, always keeping his shoes spotless and patiently teaching others to do the same.

While in school, Adrian was not only a fan of sports but an active participant. He played football and excelled in track, bringing discipline, focus, and determination to everything he pursued. He carried that same drive into his work and daily life, always striving to do his best.

Above all, Adrian was a devoted father. His daughter, Maria Isabella, was the light of his life, his forever baby. One of his greatest joys was getting her ready for school, making sure she was cared for and prepared for the day. Even when life made it difficult for him to always be present, Maria Isabella was never far from his thoughts. He loved her deeply and carried constant concern for her well being, wanting nothing more than to ensure she was safe, loved, and taken care of.

Adrian found peace in simple and meaningful things. He had a deep love for animals and found comfort in their presence. Some of his most cherished memories were spent in Nayarit, Mexico, with his great grandparents and extended family, surrounded by love, tradition, and a sense of belonging that stayed with him throughout his life. He enjoyed reading mystery and suspense novels, especially those by James Patterson, and had a strong interest in the universe, often drawn to the work of Stephen Hawking. He also enjoyed watching and discussing programs on the History Channel and National Geographic, always curious and eager to understand the world more deeply. Music was an important part of Adrian’s life, and he wrote raps and poems for himself, using writing as a private outlet for his thoughts and experiences. Working hard and earning what he had gave him pride and purpose.

In his own way, Adrian sought comfort in faith. He found peace in trying to understand God’s word and in the belief that rest, mercy, and grace were possible. Though he struggled in silence at times, his heart held immense love for those who supported him, and he longed to be understood. Adrian was more than the challenges he faced; he was precious, deeply loved, and worthy of compassion.

As a son and brother, Adrian was protective, loyal, and caring. He loved his mother and siblings fiercely, even when he was hardheaded at times. That love later poured fully into his daughter, becoming one of the greatest expressions of who he was.

Adrian is survived by his mother, Diana Ramos; his sisters, Laura, Consuelo, and Carmen; his brothers, Alfredo and Alexandro; and his bonus siblings, Olivia and Marc Antonio, whom he loved and always called his own. He is also survived by his beloved daughter, Maria Isabella.

We commend Adrian to the mercy and grace of God, trusting that he has now found the peace he sought, a peace beyond pain, beyond struggle, and beyond understanding. May he rest in eternal peace, surrounded by love, and remembered always for the goodness he carried within him.
