Clayton Bermudez Obituary
Gilroy - June 3, 1948 - April 19, 2018
Clayton "Ronnie" Bermudez passed away on Thursday after a long battle with a chronic illness. He could light up a room with his energy and have everyone laughing in no time. Ronnie was a fierce family man and nothing made him happier than spending time with his great big Mexipino family and BBQing for everyone.
Clayton was born in Calexico, CA and graduated from Gonzales High School (66'). Clayton enjoyed a 30 year career with the City of San Jose. He was promoted to Supervisor, retired in 2000 and started his retirement job doing what he loved the most, working at Harley Davidson, House of Thunder in Morgan Hill.
Clayton is survived by his loving wife Mary; and his three beautiful daughters Elizabeth Bermudez (Marinchak), Yvonne Bermudez (Falvey), Maxine Bermudez (Gullo) and grandchildren, Malia and Ella Marinchak, and James Clayton, Isabella, and Francesca Falvey. He is also survived by his sisters Marlene Alderete, Rosemary Bermudez, Anna Rodriguez, and Lela Chavez and his brothers Joseph Bermudez (deceased) and Charles Reed.
Friends and family are invited to a vigil on Sunday, April 29th from 5-7 p.m. at Habings Family Funeral Home in Gilroy. On Monday, April 30th, Funeral services will be held at St. Benedict's Church in Hollister, CA at 11:00 a.m. Burial to follow at Queen of Heaven Cemetery in Salinas, CA.

Mary and Family,
I was saddened to hear about Ronnie's passing. It was heartening reading his obituary and reading how he loved being with his Mexipino family. Soledad, where Ronnie and I grew up was filled with a great many Mexipino families and I have many memories of all those families. We all had a similar family experience. I remember Ronnie to be a very funny guy who always had a perpetual smile on his face and his laughter seemed to be like punctuation after everything he said. I don't think I ever saw him without a smile on his face. Please accept my heartfelt condolences to you and your family. I know he will be missed greatly.
Warmest Regards,
Joe and Barbara Ramos
