Texas Mourns the Loss of Cindy Ramos-Davidson, a Trailblazer, Advocate, and Community Champion
With heavy hearts and profound gratitude, the El Paso community and beyond honor the passing of Cindy Ramos-Davidson—a visionary leader whose unwavering dedication transformed the landscape for minority-owned businesses and underserved communities. For 27 years, she served as President and CEO of the El Paso Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, shaping it into a force for economic empowerment and opportunity.
In the early hours of June 1, 2025, Cindy passed away peacefully in her sleep, surrounded by the same love and compassion she so freely shared with others. Her departure marks the end of an era defined by tireless advocacy, selfless leadership, and an unrelenting commitment to those striving to build a better future.
More than an executive, Cindy was a force of nature—equal parts grit and grace. She was known for her tenacity, warmth, and boundless vision, uplifting entrepreneurs, families, and neighborhoods, particularly in historically marginalized communities. Whether walking the halls of the Capitol, mentoring a young business owner, or greeting a vendor by name at a ribbon cutting, she approached each moment with heart, humor, and humility.
Though she often shied away from recognition, her impact never went unnoticed. Cindy played a pivotal role in shaping economic mobility efforts, ensuring Hispanic voices were heard and centered. She was a devoted wife, loving mother, proud daughter, and cherished friend.
Her absence leaves an immeasurable void, but her legacy remains indelible, woven into the fabric of El Paso, Texas, and the national Hispanic business community. Her work, passion, and unwavering belief in people will continue to resonate for generations to come.
Per her wishes, a Celebration of Life will be held this August, where family, friends, colleagues, and community members will gather to honor Cindy’s extraordinary legacy. The Ramos-Davidson family asks for continued prayers, support, and reflections as they prepare to celebrate a life lived with purpose, compassion, and an unstoppable drive to uplift others. |
