Raymond G. Arzaga

Raymond was born on November 3, 1962 in Bakersfield, Ca to Heriberto and Dolores Arzaga. He passed February 4, 2025.

He was preceded in death by his father Heriberto, and brother Alfred Arzaga.

Raymond leaves behind his loving mother, Dolores, his devoted wife of 42 years, Nancy, and his daughters: Rosalinda, Joanna, and Stephanie. He was also a proud grandfather to his two granddaughters, Nadia and Amerie. Additionally, he is survived by his three brothers Herbert Jr, Jesse/Rachel, Ruben and three sisters Frances/Pete, Lupe, Susie/Louie, who will forever hold his memory close to their hearts.

Raymond was known for his quick wit, sharp tongue, and endless jokes—always ready with a smart remark that could make anyone laugh. His sense of humor and larger-than-life personality brought joy to those around him, and his presence was a light in the lives of his family and friends.

For 18 years, he proudly worked at bolthouse farms as a fork lift operator. He was respected by many and known by his coworkers as “grandpa.” 

Though he is no longer with us, his humor, love, and unforgettable spirit will live on in the hearts of those who knew him.
