Luis Elias Rios
March 7, 1955 – December 15, 2024
Luis Elias Rios, beloved father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend
passed away unexpectedly on December 16, 2024, at the age of 69. Born on March 7, 1955, Luis grew up as the fifth of seven siblings in a household filled with love and laughter.
Affectionately called Louie by his family, he was known for his sharp wit, sense of humor and big heart. Louie had a gift for making those around him feel special. His laughter was contagious, his kindness boundless, and his presence always uplifting. Louie had a remarkable ability to turn even the toughest days into moments of light and joy, and his generous spirit left a lasting impact on everyone fortunate enough to know him.
Louie is survived by his daughter Jamayra, grandson Justin, his siblings Tommy (Diana), Jose (Adela), Edgar (Lillian), Grizel (Paul), David (Kayte); nieces Grizel (Steve), Karim (Kareem), Miranda, Sammie (Kyle), Amaris, Maia; nephews Das, Tomas, Chris, Elliot, his Godson Sammy; and extended family, Griselda, Mayra, Julio, Julia, Millie, and his dear friend Yvette.
He adored his family and friends and will be deeply missed. His memory will live on in the countless stories he shared and the countless memories we made with him.
A celebration of Louie’s life will be held on December 21st, 2024 at Money & King Vienna Funeral Home, between the hours of 12 PM and 5 PM, with a service at 3 PM.
Friends and family will gather to honor his legacy and share memories of a man who made the world a brighter place.
Rest in peace, Louie. Your heart was as big as your personality, and we will remember you always.

Luis was such an energetic and loving guy. I’ll never forget the joy he brought to a room. Most of my memories were at family gatherings at Lilian Rios’s house with him. I looked forward every year to sharing dinner with him and watching Thanksgiving football with him.
Rest in peace my brother.
Rest in peace my friend. You always made me laugh and I will miss you 😢.
It’s always difficult to lose a family member but to lose a sibling is heart wrenching. Although we didn’t know Louis personally, we know David, and after reading the obituary, we realize his kindness and welcoming smile must be a Rios family trait. Condolences to the family and prayers for healing.
