With profound sadness and heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Erick Ortiz, who left this world far too soon on June 7, 2025, at the age of 31. A devoted father, loving son, loyal brother, and cherished friend, Erick’s presence was a source of strength and light to all who had the honor of knowing him. His sudden departure has left a void that can never be filled, but his memory will continue to inspire and uplift those he leaves behind.
Born and raised in Lancaster, California, Erick was a true example of resilience, compassion, and heartfelt kindness. Known for his radiant smile, generous spirit, and a laugh that could warm even the coldest day, Erick made an impact everywhere he went. He was someone who never hesitated to offer help, lend an ear, or simply share a moment of joy with others. His legacy is one of love—pure and enduring.
Among his greatest joys in life was his beautiful daughter, Serenity. Erick poured his heart into fatherhood, and those who knew him best will remember him as a deeply devoted dad who found meaning and purpose in raising and protecting his little girl. The bond between Erick and Serenity was unbreakable, a testament to the love that defined his life. His guiding hand and tender spirit will live on in her heart forever.
Erick was also a loyal son and a proud brother, someone his family could always count on. Whether it was sharing a quiet moment at home or laughing together at family gatherings, Erick’s love for his family was unwavering. He brought people together, reminded others of the importance of connection, and lived a life that honored his roots and his relationships.
In the wake of his passing, Erick’s family now faces the heavy emotional and financial burdens that come with such a heartbreaking loss. As they prepare to say their final goodbyes and honor his memory through a memorial service, they are also navigating the deep waters of grief and the unexpected challenges that come with it.

Donations are being accepted to help cover funeral expenses and to ensure that Serenity and the rest of his family have the support they need in the days ahead. Any contribution, no matter the size, is a gift of love and solidarity.
