The Hog Ring - Trimmer Arnulfo Perez Dies at 88

Trimmer Arnulfo Tarango Perez of Fresno, California, has died at the age of 88.

Arnulfo was born on August 19, 1937 in Texas. After completing his studies, he worked in auto upholstery, with a career that spanned more than 40 years. “His hands shaped countless projects, and his commitment to quality reflected the pride he took in his work,” his obituary says.

In Arnulfo’s off time, he enjoyed fishing, cooking and spending time with family and friends. “His friendly and happy nature made him someone who never met a stranger; Arnulfo made friends easily and left lasting impressions wherever he went,” his obituary adds.

Sadly, Arnulfo died on November 15, 2025. He is survived by his sisters, Emma Ramirez and Oralia “Lali” Rodriguez; two daughters, one son, many nieces, nephews, grandchildren and great grandchildren.

“Though he will be deeply missed, the legacy of kindness, warmth and love of family he leaves behind will continue to live on in the hearts of those who knew him,” his obituary says.

May he Rest in Peace.
