Loreto Rivera Saludares' Obituary
It is with great sadness to share the passing of Loreto Rivera Saludares. Hawaiian Memorial Park Mortuary is honored to be serving the Saludares family.
Loreto Rivera Saludares, “Eto”, 67, passed on unexpectedly on July 18, 2021 in Las Vegas, NV. Loreto was born on August 16, 1953 to parents Elarion Saludares and Alejandrina Saludares in Brgy. 8, San Antonio Sarrat, Ilocos Norte Philippines. He was a proud Army Veteran and a Retired Commercial Construction Laborer. He lived on Oahu in Pearl City, HI from 1969. He was working from the age of 16 years old and the only day off he took was for his fathers funeral. He was a very hard worker and did it all for his family. His smile was so contagious. He was always so humble, encouraging, respectful, strong and a very good man with the biggest heart. He always said “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”. Throughout his life when situations became difficult he would always work so hard to overcome any obstacle. He always showed that he was okay and that everything will be okay. He held on and he fought until the very last second of his life. He was a true warrior that is gone too soon and he will be sorely missed.
He is survived by his loving wife Ginalinda Saludares; loving children, Candice (Jonathan) Miner, Katrina (Jason) Rostar, Loretta Saludares, Jandrina (Jay) Parras, Loresha Saludares; Loreto Rivera Saludares Jr., Sebastian Saludares; loving grandchildren, Nathan Miner, Jonah Miner, Noah Miner, Josiah Miner, Darina Saludares, Jay Jay Rostar, Jayna Parras, Jahzion Parras, Krystalynn Saludares, Kaitlyn Saludares, and 2 more on the way; former spouse, Shari Saludares, siblings, Samuel (Irene) Saludares, Luzviminda (Danny) Paguirigan, Lilia (Rogel) Paguirigan.
