ALYSSA MARIE ORTEGON
SUNRISE: NOVEMBER 26, 1995 - SUNSET: OCTOBER 24, 2022
On Monday October 24,2022 our Angel, Alyssa M. Ortegon, received her wings.
Her passing was unexpected and a tragic loss for her family, friends and especially “her boys” and loves
of her life: her son, Apollo, boyfriend, Dennis, and her fury four-legged son, Dexter. She was loved and
will be missed by her parents, siblings as well as her very extended family of aunts, uncles, tons of loving cousins,
and her grandparents.
Alyssa was always known for her loving heart and beautiful smile. To know her is to love her. Her ability
to be herself and have fun with no regard for what people said or thought will always be admired. She
loved to sing and dance, and she was good at both. Her singing earned her a singing part on the
Mariachi De Los Nino’s without being able to speak or understand Spanish and she nailed it. She was
also a very proud member of the Wheat Ridge High School Pom Squad Dance Team. Her ability to learn
and the confidence to try new things started at a very young age. From elementary school talent shows
through playing the flute in high school when she was asked to accompany the marching band to
perform in Hawaii, and off she went.
Alyssa loved her family and loved to be around them watching the Broncos play or any Colorado team
for that matter, she was truly a Homer! She also loved to fish, was able to load her own hooks and gut
her own fish; something she was very proud of. At 26 years young she touched a lot of hearts and will be
deeply missed by many. The one thing she was most proud of was being a mom. Her Boys were her
world and as a young mother she had a lot to prove and tried her best. Her passing will leave a huge
void in all our lives, and she will be missed but never forgotten. We all love you, Alyssa….
Memorial Service will be held on Friday November 4, 2022 at Crossroads Church at 3010 Newland St.
Wheat Ridge, CO 80214. Doors open at 3:30pm with services beginning at 4:30pm. A reception will
follow at the same location.

Cousin,
Our memories hurt me the most. All the laughs, dancing to Ciara at your moms, all the car rides with Grandma Ruth, Aunty Syl & Alex – I'll never let those memories go. I'll keep them engraved in my heart forever! I'm older than you, but only by 2 weeks and 4 days, but it didn't matter I still protected you my baby cousin!! I will never forget all the support and love you showed me when my best friend passed away. You were truly the best cousin anyone could ask for. I love you so very much & I'll miss you Alyssa. My heart is truly broken. Save me a spot next to you and Grandma. Shine light on our love so we can make it back to each other one day! Love, Antonia, your cousin.
Delbert, Sylvia, and family we are deeply saddened by your loss! We never know why, but now your Angel will always be safe and with you all!
Please accept our sincere condolences. We love you all and are here if you need anything.
Alyssa I will cherish our memories forever! High school and middle school would've been so dull without you! I'm so sad I don't have any pictures with you, but all the fun we had throughout the years will forever be in my heart. I know Apollo has his family but I will always be here for him! I love you
Alyssa you came into my life a young beautiful girl still in high school. You were shy the day I met you and boy did that change as the years went on. You were funny and had a heart of gold. I am so blessed that you gave me the most precious gift a person could ever receive and that is my grandson Apollo. I made you a promise that I will always make sure he would be taken care of and that will never change. My heart is broken that you left us so soon. I believe god needed you in heaven so you could sore with angels. Till we meet again I wills always love you to the moon and back.
