Ralph "Payito" B. Corella was born a twin on October 15, 1959 to Rafael Corella and Adelaide "Lala" Burruel. God called him home on March 4, 2019. Payito was proceeded in death by his father and more recently his beloved mama. He is survived by his Cuate; Antonio Corella (Patty); his brothers, Robert Gutierrez (Monce), Atanacio Gutierrez (Celia); sisters, Mari Mendoza (Conrado), Margaret Palomino (Ronnie), Barbara Nunez (Carlos), Mary Yolanda Ramirez (Steve) and Gloria Rubalcaba; God-parents, Vicente and Sofia Sierra; and many nieces and nephews along with many more family members. He was blessed to also have an extremely large extended family in the many close friends he made during his life.
Ralph was a caregiver for his brother in law and worked as a maintenance engineer. By trade he was an Auto body man and Painter. He had a life long passion for Lowriders and Bombitas. Ralphie was full of life and emotion and made friends easily. He was always ready for a car show or carne asada at his twin brother's house listening to oldies. He also loved a good plate of tacos with beans and rice or a hamburger with "everybody in it". He had so much love for his nieces and nephews and ahijados. Ralph enjoyed taking care of his plants and watching his movies or taking his stroll. Rafai touched many hearts and was loved by many.
Our beloved brother was a Godson, Tio, Nino, friend and homie and even had the roll of a dad and a tata too. He will be missed dearly. We are very thankful for the time God blessed us with him. It's hard but we understand your pain and how tired you were. We know you're home now and at peace with your mom and dad and all our loved ones who took this journey before you, whom you missed very much. But we believe we will also see you again one day.
Rest in peace Payito. Descanse en paz hermano mio.
