Isidro married Reyes, knowing she had 5 children that were not his, and he could have easily walked away but they all eventually became one happy family. He loved them like his own and they loved him like their father. He instilled in his children to work hard and never depend on anyone to help you, he was their number one supporter, protector, go to person, advisor, and rock that they loved deeply. His children call him, "Men of all Men" and the "hardest working man they have ever known". He was currently working for Barrett and Crofoot West and had been there for 38 years cowboying. Isidro loved cattle, cowboying, wrestling, Broncos football team, his ranch, but most of all he loved his family, especially his grandchildren, he never allowed anyone to spank them when he was around. He never knew how to say "no" and had a very big heart. He loved his brothers, he was always calling to check in on them, and they would have long conversations on the phone quite often. Isidro was a true blessing and a wonderful example of a "great man", to his family.

Those left to cherish his memories are his wife, Reyes Ruiz, his children, Rene Ruiz, Joe Riojas and his wife Sabrina, Severiano Riojas, Oralia Riojas and her companion Tony Ortega all of Hereford, Texas, and Maria Riojas of Port Arthur, Texas; his father, Ramiro Ruiz Chacon of Mexico; his siblings, Ramiro Ruiz and his wife Lordes, Fernando Ruiz and his wife Hilda, Oscar Ruiz and Minerva Ruiz all of Hereford, Texas, and Nario Ruiz and his wife Patricia of Mexico; 24 grandchildren and 25 great grandchildren.

Isidro nació el 2 de septiembre de 1959 en el Municipio Gomes Farías, Chihuahua, México, hijo de Ramiro Ruiz Chacón e Irma Ortiz Ruiz. Isidro ha sido residente de Hereford, Texas, desde 1978. Se casó con el amor de su vida Reyes Figueroha, el 22 de marzo de 1982. Isidro se casó con Reyes, sabiendo que ella tenía 5 hijos que no eran suyos, y él podría haberse alejado fácilmente, pero todos eventualmente se convirtieron en una familia feliz. Él los amaba como a los suyos y ellos lo amaban como a su padre. Él inculcó en sus hijos a trabajar duro y nunca depender de nadie para ayudarte, él era su apoyo número uno, protector, ir a la persona, consejero y roca que amaban profundamente. Sus hijos lo llaman "Hombres de todos los hombres" y el "hombre más trabajador que jamás hayan conocido".
