Ernesto Rios Jr. 29, passed away February 27, 2013 at Baptist Hospital from surgical complications. He was born on November 4, 1983 in Elk City, Oklahoma to Nelia Rios and the late Ernesto Rios. He would have been employed at Allied Waste for 9 years as a diesel mechanic. Ernesto brought the party to life, loved to make people laugh, crack jokes and always has some catchy slick thing to say in any situation. He was the kind of person to say what was on his mind without holding anything back. Ernesto was a real man's man, he was tough and stood up for what he believed in, but underneath his tough exterior he was a sweet, loving father, son, brother and friend that loved his pit bulls, and even spoiled cats. Ernesto is survived by his loving mother Nelia Rios Flores, four sisters: Lucinda and husband Shawn Smith, Trena and husband Jonathan Forgy, Blanca Tovias, Nelie Tovias, fiance Magan Scott, and daughters Anabelle Rios and Oreana Medina, nieces, Justice Brewer, Autumn Brewer, Oudrina Smith, Lillian and Emily Forgy, Lucero Hernandez, nephews Austin Brewer Jr., Michael Smith, Arturo Hernandez, and Dakota Gnade, cousins Victoria Chancellor, Stephany Thompson, Monica Gonzales, Marisa Rascon, and Inez and Johnny Gonzales. Ernesto is also survived by his homeboys Joshua LaPierre, Christopher Gilette, Morgan Downey, and brother from another mother Salaethiel Woodley, and team of Allied Waste. Ernesto, you are loved and will be missed so much. Thank you for the smiles you gave us and the ones you put on our faces. You are one of a kind person and will never be forgotten. Love you mijo!
