Obituario

Con gran tristeza, anunciamos el fallecimiento de Jaime Ojeda Ramírez, quien nos dejó el 29 de abril de 2023. Nació el 1 de agosto de 1951 en San Luis Río Colorado Sonora, México. Jaime era querido por todos los que lo conocían por su ingenio rápido y su sentido del humor. Jaime era un músico consumado que tenía una verdadera pasión por tocar la batería y la guitarra, y tenía una voz asombrosa que podía cautivar a cualquiera que lo escuchara.

En sus veinte años, Jaime fundó el grupo musical "Los Fires", donde era el baterista y vocalista principal. Tocaban principalmente cumbias en español y viejos éxitos del rock como "Juana la Cubana", "Cenizas", "Llanto del Corazón", "Have You Ever Seen the Rain" y "Proud Mary", entre otros. Jaime era un verdadero artista que compartía su talento y amor por la música con todos a su alrededor.

La amabilidad y generosidad de Jaime se extendieron más allá de la música, ya que era un devoto amante de los animales. Regularmente donaba a organizaciones benéficas que ayudaban a alimentar cachorros y otras mascotas necesitadas. Su naturaleza compasiva se reflejaba en todo lo que hacía y siempre será recordado como un verdadero humanitario.

Jaime deja atrás a su esposa, Virginia Zavala de Ojeda, quien estuvo a su lado día y noche, su exesposa, María Rascón, y los tres hijos que tuvo mientras estaba casado con la Sra. Rascón: Jaime Ojeda, el primogénito; Jasub Ojeda, el hijo mediano; y Arisbey Ojeda-García. También deja atrás a 5 queridos nietos, Yebsira García, Arisbey García, Yaritzia García, Jaziel Ojeda y Genesis Ojeda. Su memoria vivirá en los corazones de su familia, quienes siempre atesorarán los recuerdos que compartieron con él.

En sus momentos finales, estaba muy feliz y agradecido por todo el apoyo y amor que recibió de su nuera, Triny Ojeda, quien lo cuidó con ternura y devoción, su yerno, Raymundo García, su sobrina, Cecilia Alcalá, sus primos, Alberto Martínez y Luis Ramírez, y sus amigos cercanos como Jorge, Rosario y Mario Bautista, Leonardo Corrales y muchos más.

Se llevará a cabo un velorio en honor a Jaime el sábado 6 de mayo, de 8 am a 10 pm en la Funeraria del Valle en la Calle 17 y Avenida Libertad en San Luis Río Colorado, Sonora. Jaime será profundamente extrañado por su familia, amigos y todos los que lo conocieron. Su memoria y legado vivirán a través de su música y las innumerables vidas que tocó durante su tiempo con nosotros.
