ADAM ZARAGOZA Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Oct. 9, 2025.
Adam Joseph Zaragoza was born on October 18, 1974, in El Centro, California. He graduated from Central Union High School in 1993, before making Arizona his home in 1999.

Adam was a devoted husband, a proud father to two beautiful daughters, and a loving grandfather. To those who knew him, Adam was more than a friend. He was family. His presence will be deeply missed, but the love he gave so freely will continue to echo in the lives of those who were fortunate enough to know him. He is survived by his loving wife Holly, his daughters Clarissa and Trinity, his grandson Cairo, his brother Aaron, and his sister Marlena. He was preceded in death by his mother Victoria and his father Manuel.

A service will be held on Friday, October 17, 2025, at 10:30 a.m. at St. Mary's Catholic Church, 795 S. La Brucherie Road, El Centro, California. Burial to follow at Evergreen Cemetery at 12:00 noon. Friends are invited to join a gathering in Adam's honor at the Fraternal Order of Eagles, 661 W. State Street, El Centro, California, beginning at 2:00 p.m.
