Obituary of Zoraida Ruiz-Vega

Zoraida Ruiz, a longtime resident of Rochester passed away on Friday September 29, 2017 at Strong Memorial Hospital.

Born in 1956 in Puerto Rico, Zoraida received a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration from the University of Puerto Rico in Rio Piedras in 1977. Unfortunately, due to medical complications, Zoraida wasn’t able to work.

In 1991, Zoraida and her 2 kids relocated to Rochester, NY for a fresh start and to find the medical treatment that Zoraida needed. During the years in Rochester, Zoraida sold Pasteles to sustain income.

Zoraida loved to cook food and socialize. She loved going to events such as the circus and the movies. She had a wonderful smile that could light up a room.

She is survived by her 2 kids; Jorge Arroyo and Jorlin Arroyo, several grandchildren Jaylen, Aliyona and Nene, siblings; Pito, Ana, Sony, Edith; some who live in Rochester and the rest in Puerto Rico. All of Zoraida’s family brought great joy to her last years.
