James
Ruiz
1927-2007 He was known by many names, but no single one could describe him. James served his country and did what he thought was right. Daddy raised a family and provided what he could.
Sut had a lot of fun and his name was known by many. Mr. Ruiz would help you with whatever he could offer. Paw-Paw was proud of his grandchildren and how much they had accomplished. However you knew this man one thing was certain, he did it his way.
