Belden – Raul Sanchez “Angel,” age 54, passed away peacefully on Thursday, September 18, 2025. Born on July 13, 1969, to Leonila Lopez Ramos and Eusebio Sanchez, Raul lived a life defined by generosity, devotion, and a true love for family.

A man of Catholic faith, Raul carried himself with a kind spirit and a good heart. He was a natural hard worker who took great pride in providing for those he loved.

Those who knew Raul will remember his outgoing personality and his ability to make others feel welcome and cared for. His laughter and presence filled every room he entered. More than anything, Raul cherished the time he spent with his family.
