Ruby Martinez Obituary
Ruby Ann Martinez, born September 20, 1993, was called home on April 6, 2019, at the tender age of 25. She was a loving, outgoing young lady who jumped at the chance to help those in need. Ruby aspired to attend school in the Fall to study social work with a goal to work for Child Protective Services. She struggled with her health throughout her childhood, but she persevered and grew up to become a strong, deter- mined woman.
She is reunited in Heaven with her great-grandmothers Aurora & Carmen; great-grand father Apolonio; grandfather Andrew; Uncle Richard; cousin Malery; and nephew Baby Leo. Her time here with us was short, but her impact was huge, and Ruby's legacy will forever live on in the hearts of her adopted parents Dahlia J. & Martin Gonzales; grandmother Mary Jane Martinez biological parents Rudy A. Martinez & Laura Leos; siblings Albert, Ace, Leo, Angel, Paul, Ashley, Krystal, Janelle, Melanie (Jose), Robert III, April, Roxanne, Martin, Angelica; and numerous extended family and friends. Visitation will be held at Castillo Mission Funeral Home on Tuesday, April 16, 2019 from 3-9pm, with a Rosary to be recited at 7pm. A funeral procession will prepare to depart at 11am on Wednesday, April 17, 2019 for a Mass of Christian Burial at 12pm at Holy Rosary Catholic Church. Interment to follow at San Fernando Catholic Cemetery III.

Missing you every minute of everday. Missing our late night video chats and your crazy early text messages to the fam, but most of all your physical presence on this earth. Its so crazy to me that you're gone so early. I remember we would talk about all the plans to hangout in the future. It saddens me knowing that those plans will never happen now. Thank you for being a great cousin and always picking up the phone when i needed to talk. You will be missed forever. I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Until we meet again may you rest in peace furbs.

Our childhood would have never been the same without you. You were the life of the party. We could probably hear you from miles away. I will miss being with you. I cant express how I feel towards this who thing but you are safe now with grandpa, mal and great grandma. You were taken from us way too soon. I know you are watching over all of us family. We will need it. I love you always
