Orlando Ruiz

went to heaven to be in the presence of God,

together with his parents, Benito and Amada,

his sister Zaida, and brother Orestes

on May 18, 2020.

Orlando lived in North Bergen, NJ with his beloved wife Gladys, of 58 years. He was best known to his family and closest friends lovingly, as "Chicho."

A man with a big heart, who sacrificed everything for his family when he left Cuba looking for a better life for them. In addition to his wife, daughter, son-in-law, and grandchildren, he will be remembered by his beloved sister Dalia and brother-in-law Wilfredo, his nieces, Odalys, Arelys, Orlando y Bierca and his great-nephews: Pepito, Chris, Andy, Cindy, Biany and Wilfredo

Chicho was always a hardworking family man, a wonderful father, amazing uncle and a good friend.

He was very strong but had a gentle side.

His family was the most important thing for him. A man of few words, but you felt the warmth of his heart.

Chicho will always be our hero, the person who although you did not see him daily, loved you with all his heart!

We will never forget you! Rest in Peace!

Thank you for your prayers and support during our time

of loss. It has meant a lot for our family.
