Andrew Paul Ruiz, age 47, went home to be with the Lord on Thursday, October 6, 2022.  His sudden death is tragic and heartbreaking.  He was born on June 7, 1975 to Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy "Santiago" Ruiz and was preceded in death by both parents and his two twin brothers Miguel A. Ruiz and Ramon A. Ruiz.

Andrew attended Albuquerque High School where he was a member of the "Dawg Pound Crew".  Throughout his life Andrew was the true jack of all trades and the master of none, and was always willing to lend a helping hand.  Andrew is survived by the companionship of Barbara Ruiz and his three kids Andrew, Mariah and Brandon, along with his grandson Jimmy A. Ruiz, his brothers James and Mona Ruiz, Juan Romero and Maria, Patricio Ruiz and his sister Frances Torres and Carlos, along with his many nephews and nieces, and his two great nephews.  Andrew was very passionate about his children and loved them with all of his heart.  He was the "Big Dogg" to all of them.  Andrew was loved by many and will be truly missed.  May he Rest in Peace and may the Lord Bless his soul.

At this time, at the request of the family, there will be no services.
