Ruth was a very giving, caring and loving person and her death has left an immense empty space in this world to all who loved her.
She is survived by her son, Jimmy Alvarez, her daughters Gloria Irene Ramirez and Irma Z. Alvarez, her grandson, Martin Jose Ramirez and two-great grand-sons, Adam and Aiden Ramirez.
