Martha Camarena Ruiz was born to parents Jacinto Camarena and Maria Campos, both preceded her in death, in Fresno, CA. Martha was raised in the West side of Fresno in a place we call Sunset and obtained her education in Fresno where she graduated from Central High School. Shortly after high school, she married her true love Anthony B Ruiz and raised 3 children, David A Ruiz, Lee Ann Ruiz and Melissa Camarena, and helped tremendously with guiding us with raising her six grandchildren. Martha worked for many years at Davis Sales and made many friends along her journey. Her highest priority was always family and making sure we were all doing ok. She was dedicated to caring for those who were sick and in need, she cared for her husband through cancer till his death. She meet George Rendon and they became companions for many years, he precedes her in death. She cared for her mom GG for many years. Always on the front line to get things done with the family. Her loving compassion for each one of us will surely be missed.

Martha loved her Raiders team even when they kept moving around, she stayed true to being a fan. She even got to attend a game in Oakland with her family against the Miami Dolphins, she had good spirits even though her team lost. She loved them so much everything she owned had a touch of Raiders on it.
