Jorge Mario Ruiz

Landscape architect and loving father, Jorge Mario Ruiz’s zest for life will be remembered with love long after his passing on August 2, 2022. He passed peacefully surrounded by loved ones who will strive to honor his memory by living their lives to the fullest.

Jorge shared life’s simple yet profound treasures taught by his parents Braulio and Maria Ruiz- such as love for family, humor in everyday occurrences, care for nature, and an open door with a pot on the stove for his neighbor. Jorge knew no stranger and was the life of any party.  He took every opportunity to get a laugh out of anyone and especially lived for the smiles of his children, grandchildren, nieces & nephews. He was a phenomenal landscape architect, renowned in the Baton Rouge area for his skills, creativity, and dependability. He was an incredibly hard worker, a business owner, brilliant chef, and friend.
