Gerald-Patric De La O, age 54, passed away unexpectedly from a massive heart attack on May 24, 2025, in Phoenix, Arizona, surrounded by his loving family.
Gerald was born to Roger and Anita Lupe De La O and raised in a close-knit and loving family. He is survived by his father, Roger De La O, and mother, Racheal De La O. Gerald also leaves behind his first wife and lifelong friend, Jamie Garcia De La O, and their beloved son, Aiden. He is also survived by his devoted wife, Rebeca De La O, and their precious daughter, Anita Aniyah De La O, born just three weeks before his passing—a long-held dream come true for Gerald.
In addition to his immediate family, Gerald is survived by his siblings Joseph (Suzann), Raul (Katheryn), Robert (Crystal), and Lisa Lucero; his stepchildren Tommy, Kenny, Yesenia, Javier, and Santiago; and many cherished nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends. He was preceded in death by his biological mother, Anita Lupe Barreras De La O, and his brothers Randy and Leonard De La O.

He served as General Manager at both Hotel Serene and CAAZ Hospitality LLC and was also a talented chef at the Old Town Sheraton Hotel. Gerald had a true passion for cooking and found joy in preparing meals for others.
