Damion Demario Alday, aged 19, passed away on Wednesday, December 27, 2023, leaving behind a legacy of love, laughter, and dedication.
He was preceded in death by his grandmother, grandfather, auntie great-grandmother, great-grandfather, great uncles, and great aunties.
Damion is survived by his mother Crystal Y. Alday, father Jesus M. Ramirez; brothers: James Alday, Jesus Ramirez, Rigo Ramirez; sisters: Sirenia Ramirez, Amalia Ramirez; sister-in-law llubya Carrera; grandmother Hilda Alday; grandfather Jimmy Pedrego; uncle Angel Valdez; nino and nina feliz and jessica; also uncles, aunties, cousins, and friends.
Damion's bright spirit and infectious smile were a gift to all who knew him. He lived his life with a joyous heart and a passion for the things he cherished, from the daily workouts at the gym that sculpted his physique to the meticulous care he took in his appearance, always making sure to complement his style with just the right amount of bling.
Those who knew Damion will fondly remember his amazing dimples, a feature that lit up every room he entered and warmed the hearts of friends and family alike. His sense of humor was unmatched, and his laughter was a melody that will echo in the memories of his loved ones forever. Damion was the epitome of what many would call a "pretty boy," but he was also so much more; he was a beacon of love and intelligence, whose presence was a comfort to those around him.
A dedicated worker, Damion's work ethic was nothing short of admirable. He worked tirelessly seven days a week, driven by a deep commitment to ensure his family was well cared for and had everything they needed. His love for his family was his compass, guiding him in every choice and every sacrifice he made.
Damion's interests painted the picture of a man who knew how to enjoy life. A die-hard Raiders fan. Spaghetti dinners were a favorite occasion, a time for family to gather, share stories, and create memories around the table.
In every aspect of his life, Damion was funny, loving, and intelligent-words that only begin to scratch the surface of a life lived fully and with intention. His absence will be deeply felt by all who had the pleasure of knowing him, but the impact of his spirit will continue to inspire and guide his loved ones.
Damion Demario Alday's journey on earth may have been brief, but the imprints he left are deep and indelible. As we say goodbye to this remarkable young man, we celebrate the time we were given with him, and we hold tight to the laughter, love, and wisdom he shared so generously. His legacy will live on in the hearts of all who loved him, a testament to the beautiful life he lived.
Damion's Life Celebration will begin with a Rosary on Saturday, January 13, 2024, at 2:00 pm at Salazar Mortuary located at 400 Third St SW, 87102. Service will begin at 2:30 pm. Damion will be laid to rest following the Service at San Jose de Armijo Cemetery located at 2957 Arenal Rd. SW, 87121.
