Rodricka Joyce Topanotes

Rodricka "Rocky" Topanotes Ramirez, age 84, of Roosevelt and Myton, Utah, passed away surrounded by loved ones on July 27, 2024, in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 She was born April 1, 1940, in Ft. Duchesne, to Roderick Williams and Josie Topanotes. She married Tom Ramirez and he later passed away. 

 Rodricka's love for life and her family left an unforgettable mark on everyone she met. She was always known for her strength, and everyone knew when she was in town because she was the only 84 year old woman that would pull up in a sports car. She was truly living her best life. She led a beautiful and long life and will forever be the matriarch to the family.

 Rodricka is survived by her children, Arthur Jr, Phillip (Angel), Ricka (Donald), Kat, Todd, Larry, Thomas and Tammy. She leaves behind a legacy through her grandchildren Ely, Phillip JR, Raven, Niah, Donald Jr, Liliana, Emilio and Sky and so many more extended family members. Also, her very best friend and cousin Virgee.

 She was preceded in death by her parents; husband, Tom Ramirez; children, Perry, Gerald, Gordina, Sonya, Ronnie & Leonard, and her beloved dog, “Booboo.”

 Graveside services will be held on Saturday, August 3, 2024, at 10:30 a.m. at the Myton Cemetery. There will be a viewing at the Hullinger Mortuary on Friday from 5-7 p.m. and on Saturday from 9-10 a.m.
