Lety's obituary

Leticia Cortez Ramos, lovingly known as Lety, peacefully passed away at home on June 6, 2023, after a courageous battle with stomach cancer. Born on October 21, 1969, Lety's life was filled with warmth, compassion, and an unwavering commitment to others' well-being. Lety is survived by her loving husband, Dennis, whom she met at 18 and married in August 2005. They built a beautiful life together, prioritizing their children, Zachary and Zoe, above all else, attending events and supporting their achievements with pride. Lety was an extraordinary educator who devoted her life to teaching kindergarten and inspiring students. Adored by the entire school for her contributions and leadership, she was an integral part of the Waters Elementary School community. Lety's vibrant energy and organizational skills made her gatherings and community events unforgettable. She created a community of friends and neighbors who cherished her deeply. She will be remembered for her contagious laughter, love of celebrations, and zest for life. Lety is also survived by her loving siblings Herman, Jerry, Nancy, Javier, and Sandra, her sisters-in-law, nieces, and nephews, as well as a multitude of friends who have become her chosen family. The wake will be held on Sunday, June 11, at Smith Corcoran Funeral, and the funeral mass will be on Monday, June 12, at Our Lady of Mercy Catholic Church. In lieu of flowers, donations to the family’s funeral expenses are appreciated and can be sent to their GoFundMe account at http://bit.ly/3oZR0jQ. May Lety's spirit shine forever in our hearts.
