Marcos Ramos Flores

January 19, 1965 - April 4, 2026

Marcos Ramos Flores, de 61 años, originario de Ameca, Jalisco, hijo de Sara Flores Uribe y Jose Guadalupe Ramos Virgen (+), falleció pacíficamente en su hogar en las primeras horas del 4 de abril de 2026, mientras su esposa, Elbia, y su hijo, Marcos Jr., rezaban el rosario a su lado.

En las semanas previas a su fallecimiento, Marcos estuvo rodeado de su esposa, hijos, yernos, nietas y seres queridos, llenando sus días de amor, comodidad y compañía.

Marcos construyó una vida basada en el amor, el esfuerzo y la devoción por su familia. Después de casarse con su esposa en 1994, emigraron a los Estados Unidos. Siempre fue un hombre detallista con su esposa. Fue un trabajador incansable que siempre se esforzó por proveer para su familia, manteniéndose firme en su responsabilidad incluso durante su enfermedad. No quiso faltar ni un solo día de trabajo; continuó hasta el día en que ya no pudo caminar.

Él vivió su niñez con su familia, siguiendo el ejemplo de su padre, amando siempre los caballos y la vida ranchera. Cuando llegó a los Estados Unidos, su amor por la vida ranchera nunca desapareció. Lo llevaba consigo en su forma de vestir y en los detalles de su hogar, siempre lleno de recuerdos de lo que tanto amaba. Marcos encontraba alegría en el aire libre—yendo a acampar, cultivando su jardín y compartiendo tiempo con su familia. También disfrutaba de las cosas sencillas, como ir a las tiendas de segunda mano y a las ventas de garaje con la familia.

Hombre de pocas palabras, Marcos demostraba su amor con hechos. Amaba profundamente con todo el corazón, dejando amistades en todos lados.

Deja a su amada esposa, Elbia Ramos Gutiérrez, con quien compartió casi 32 años de matrimonio, apenas antes de su aniversario el 16 de abril; sus cuatro hijos, Mónica (Carlos), Alejandra (Chase), Marcos Jr., y Jennifer (Juan), quienes fueron su mayor orgullo y alegría; y sus queridas nietas, Ahlani y Ari, hijas de Mónica, y Capri, hija de Alejandra, quienes trajeron luz y felicidad interminable a su vida. Tambien a su mama, Sara Flores Uribe, y a sus hermanos y hermanas. Ahora descansa en paz en la gloria de Dios.

Se llevará a cabo una velación el 17 de abril de 5:00 a 8:00 PM. Los servicios funerarios se realizarán en la Iglesia Católica de St. George el 18 de abril a las 10:00 AM, seguidos por el sepelio en el Cementerio Tonaquint. Son bienvenidos a usar ropa vaquera para honrar a Marcos durante el sepelio. Todos los que lo conocieron y lo amaron son bienvenidos a asistir.

Muchos han preguntado si hay manera de hacer donaciones para ayudar con los gastos funerarios y relacionados. Las contribuciones pueden realizarse a través de Venmo [MarcosRG]. Muchas gracias a todos los que ya han contribuido. Su apoyo durante este momento difícil es profundamente apreciado.

Marcos nunca se irá de nuestras vidas; vivirá por siempre en nuestros corazones y en los recuerdos que compartimos juntos.

Marcos Ramos Flores, 61, originally from Ameca, Jalisco, son of Sara Flores Uribe and Jose Guadalupe Ramos Virgen (+), passed away peacefully at his home in the early hours of April 4, 2026, while his wife, Elbia, and son, Marcos Jr., prayed the rosary at his side.

In the weeks leading up to his passing, Marcos was surrounded by his wife, children, in-laws, granddaughters, and loved ones, filling his days with love, comfort, and companionship.

Marcos built a life rooted in love, hard work, and devotion to his family. After marrying his wife in 1994, they emigrated to the United States. Always attentive and caring toward his wife, he was a tireless worker who consistently strived to provide for his family, remaining committed to his responsibilities even during his illness. He did not want to miss a single day of work, and continued until the day he could no longer walk.

He grew up with his family, following the example of his father, always loving horses and the ranching life. When he arrived in the United States, his love for the western lifestyle never faded. He carried it with him in the way he dressed and in the details of his home, always filled with reminders of what he cherished most. Marcos found joy in the outdoors—going camping, gardening, and spending time with his family. His ideal Saturday was spent waking up early for yard sales and thrift stores, followed by going out to eat with his family.

A man of few words, Marcos showed his love through his actions. He loved deeply, with all his heart, leaving friendships wherever he went.

He is survived by his beloved wife, Elbia Ramos Gutiérrez, with whom he shared nearly 32 years of marriage, just shy of their anniversary on April 16; his four children, Mónica (Carlos), Alejandra (Chase), Marcos Jr., and Jennifer (Juan), who were his greatest pride and joy; and his cherished granddaughters, Ahlani and Ari, daughters of Mónica, and Capri, daughter of Alejandra, who brought endless light and happiness to his life.

A viewing will take place on April 17 from 5:00–8:00 PM. Funeral services will be held at St. George Catholic Church on April 18 at 10:00 AM, followed by interment at Tonaquint Cemetery. Guests are welcome to wear western attire to honor Marcos during the service. All who knew and loved him are welcome to attend.

Many have asked if there is a way to make donations to help with funeral and related expenses. Contributions may be made via Venmo [MarcosRG]. Many thanks to everyone who has already contributed. Your support during this difficult time is deeply appreciated.

Marcos will never leave our lives; he will live forever in our hearts and in the memories we shared together.
