Ruben Dario Posada

Ruben Dario Posada, known affectionately as Ruben, passed away on November 24, 2023, in Orange County, California, at the age of 60. Born on September 11, 1963, in Columbia, Ruben brought a lifetime of joy, kindness, and intelligence to everyone he encountered.
Ruben's early years in Columbia were filled with the close-knit warmth of family and the vibrant culture of his homeland. His journey led him to further his education by attending college, where he cultivated a foundation that would inform both his professional and personal life. Ruben's career as a medical equipment assembler and his skilled electrical work were a testament to his meticulous and detail-oriented nature. His professional contributions were not just about the tasks at hand, but also about the care and precision he put into every project.
In his personal life, Ruben was the embodiment of love and kindness. He was a devoted husband to his wife, Carmen, a supportive brother to Ana and Solead, and a proud father to his son, Simon. Ruben's family was the cornerstone of his life, and his dedication to them was unwavering. He cherished every moment spent with them, whether it was a quiet evening at home or a lively family gathering.
Ruben was a man of many interests and talents. His love for all cars was evident to anyone who shared a conversation with him about the latest models or classic restorations. He had a knack for fixing anything that was broken, earning him the reputation of being the family's go-to handyman. There was no challenge too great for Ruben, and his problem-solving abilities were matched only by his eagerness to help others.
One of Ruben's simplest pleasures was enjoying a cup of fresh Colombian coffee. This daily ritual was a nod to his heritage and a moment he savored, often reflecting on fond memories of his homeland. His appreciation for the simple things in life was a lesson in gratitude that he imparted to all who knew him.
Ruben's legacy is one of love, kindness, and intelligence. He approached life with a gentle heart and a sharp mind, always ready to offer a helping hand or a word of encouragement. His impact on those around him was profound, and he will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

His spirit lives on in the love he gave, the wisdom he imparted, and the countless lives he touched. Ruben's memory will be cherished and kept alive through the stories and laughter he leaves behind.
Ruben is survived by his loving family, who will continue to honor his memory by living their lives with the same compassion and integrity that he exemplified. He will be remembered as a beacon of light in the lives of many, and his influence will continue to be felt for generations to come.
As the sun sets on Ruben's earthly journey, we take solace in knowing that his journey was one well-traveled, and his destination is one of peace. May he rest in the same love and grace that he so freely gave during his time with us.
