Miguel Lopez Ciriza

Miguel Lopez Ciriza, 64, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family and loved ones on October 22, 2025, in Loveland, Colorado.

Miguel was born in Chihuahua, Mexico, to Lucila and Julian Lopez.

After the passing of his mother at a young age, he was lovingly raised by Jose and Ana Castro, who guided him with strength and compassion.

He met the love of his life, Irene, when they were very young, and the two instantly formed a bond that would last a lifetime. They were married on December 16, 1983, and spent 42 beautiful years together building a family filled with love, laughter, and devotion.

Miguel was a hardworking man who dedicated his life to providing for and supporting his family. He was the proud father of four children: Jesus, Hector, Carlos, and Cynthya. Miguel's strength and perseverance were unmatched-especially after being diagnosed with stage 4 esophageal cancer in August 2025. He faced his illness with courage, faith, and the same quiet resilience that defined his life.

To know Miguel was to love him. His warmth, humor, and kindness touched everyone he met. Whether as a husband, father, brother, grandfather, or friend, Miguel had a way of making those around him feel seen, loved, and valued. His legacy lives on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know him.

Please join us as we honor and lay Miguel to rest.
