Luis Robles Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Aztlan Mortuary - La Mesa on Jan. 5, 2026.
Luis T. Robles, age 86, passed away peacefully on December 12, 2025. He was born on June 21, 1939, in La Barranca del Oro, Nayarit. He lived a life defined by strong faith, devotion to his family, hard work, and deep love for those around him.

In 1956, Luis moved to Tijuana, where he met the love of his life, Elidia, in 1969, his beloved wife of 56 years. Together, they built a strong and loving family. In 1974, Luis moved with his family to San Diego, California, where he made his home and built a life rooted in faith, perseverance, and dedication.

Luis worked faithfully for National Steel and Shipbuilding Company (NASSCO) for 37 years, where he was known for his strong work ethic, reliability, and commitment. Through his years of service, he provided for his family with pride and humility, always leading by example.

Luis was a loving and devoted father to his four children: Angelica (Thomas), Jose Luis (Ivonne), Fermin, and Diego (Ruth), whom he guided with faith, humility, and love. He was a proud and adoring grandfather to Thomas Dean, David J., Miguel A., and Elias Diego, whose lives were a blessing to him and a constant source of joy. He is also survived by his brother Emiliano Venegas and sister Teresa Venegas. A man of deep faith, Luis placed his trust in God and has now been called home to eternal rest in the peace of the Lord.

Luis will be remembered for his strength, kindness, and unwavering commitment to his family. His legacy lives on through the generations he helped shape and the love he shared so freely. He will be deeply missed and forever cherished.

Funeral services will be held on January 6, 2026, from 5:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Aztlan Mortuary in La Mesa.

Mass will follow on January 7, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. at his parish, Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in San Diego, California, followed by burial at Holy Cross Cemetery.
