Rubi graduated from Pan American University, Edinburg, Texas and earned her Masters in Social Work from the University of Houston. She dedicated her life to her profession, retiring in 2015. Education was a must for our sister. She encouraged her friends and family to continue their education. She loved books, music, and most of all, family gatherings of any kind. She loved to cook and shared her recipes which we will cherish forever. She will be missed and lovingly remembered for her generosity and that beautiful smile.
Rubi is survived by her son, Marco Antonio Rivas; granddaughter Serenity Rivas; sister Gracie Valdez Ramirez (Willie, Jr.); brother Nicanor Valdez, Jr. (Angelina); sister Irene Valdez; brother David Valdez (Lynda); brother Michael Valdez; and several nieces and nephews.
A Graveside service will be held on Saturday, August 3, 2019 at Highland Memorial Park in Weslaco, Texas.
