ELSA-Ormandin Torres passed away on August 28, 2026, in McAllen, TX, at the age of 55. He was born on June 15, 1971, in Berrien Springs, Michigan.
Ormandin will be remembered as a giving person who loved all his friends and brought warmth to those around him. He found joy in the things that made life lively and memorable. He enjoyed his music, was an avid Texans fan, and loved cooking out, especially when sharing his cabrito with others. He also loved going to the beach, where he could relax and enjoy time with the people he cared about. His favorite color was green, a simple detail that those who knew him well will always remember with a smile.
Above all, Ormandin’s life was rooted in the love of family and friendship. He is survived by his wife, Alma Torres, who shared his life and love. He also leaves behind his son, Manuel Torres (Siomara Mtz.), and his daughter, Virginia Torres (Robert Gault). He is also survived by his sisters, Delia Torres, Dominga Garcia, and Gloria Castillo. Each of them carries forward treasured memories of his kindness, his companionship, and the many moments of laughter and togetherness he created.
He was preceded in death by his father, Ramon Torres Sr.; his mother, Santos Garza; his brothers, Manuel Torres, Ramon Torres Jr., and Santos Torres; and his sister, Luzita Torres. Their memory remained part of his life, and now he rests with them in peace.
