With both tender hearts and unwavering faith, we announce the passing of Alva Alvarado De Ruano (age 74), who entered into the glorious presence of her Lord and Savior on May 21, 2026.
Born on November 26, 1951, lived a life defined by grace, faith, and an abiding love for her family. Though we grieve her physical absence, we take immense comfort in knowing she is fully healed, at peace, and reunited in Heaven with loved ones who preceded her in death. She leaves behind a rich legacy of faith and love, and is survived by her children, and cherished grandchildren. She will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing and loving her.
Family and friends are invited to celebrate her life and homegoing at a memorial service:
Saturday, June 27th at 1:30 pm.
