Raul

Espinoza, Jr.

Raul Espinoza, Jr., son of Raul and Socorro Espinoza, of Georgetown, Texas, suddenly passed away safely into the arms of Jesus on September 23, 2026. He was born on June 18, 1986, in Georgetown, a community that remained central to his life and story.

Raul attended school in Georgetown and was a graduate of Georgetown High School, class of 2004. He continued his education at Blinn College, graduating in 2006, and went on to earn his Bachelors degree from Baylor University in 2009. It was during his time at Blinn College in Brenham that he met his soulmate, Angela, in 2006, beginning a love story that would shape the heart of his life. The two were married in Georgetown on October 9, 2015.

Professionally, Raul built a meaningful career marked by service, leadership, and a deep commitment to others. He held various roles in federal advocacy, state political operations, policy work, and multi-state nonprofit programs. Most recently, he served as Deputy State Director at Americans for Prosperity in Texas. He was greatly admired as one of the best leaders—dedicated, kind, and thoughtful, someone who cared deeply about his people. He loved his state and nation, and he brought a natural giving spirit to every place he served.

Raul had a gift for connecting with people. He never met a stranger and always seemed to know someone wherever he went. He could strike up a conversation with anyone, and he was always ready to help someone in need. Those who knew him knew a man who would give you the shirt off his back. His warmth, generosity, and steady care for others left a lasting impression on friends, colleagues, and family alike.

He also carried a lifelong love of sports. Raul played baseball all his life and throughout high school, and he also played football in high school. He enjoyed going to the gym, keeping up with the LA Dodgers and Baylor Bears, and playing pickle ball. He loved hanging out with family, finding new taco spots, and playing with his dog, Millie.

Above all else, Raul was devoted to his family. He became a “Girl Dad” in April 2018 with the birth of his first daughter, Camryn Grace, and his life became even sweeter with the birth of his second daughter, Taylor Jane, in August 2022. His wife and girls were his whole world. He was the best husband and best daddy to them, and he treasured spending time with his wife and daughters. He loved spoiling his girls, being silly with them, watching them dance at their recitals, going on weekend adventures, and making them laugh at any opportunity. His dad jokes were top notch. His daughters especially loved going on adventures with him during campaign season, staying in hotels, and swimming in hotel pools. He delighted in making them feel extra special, and the joy he found in fatherhood was one of the clearest expressions of his heart.

Raul is survived by his beloved wife, Angela Espinoza; his daughters, Camryn Espinoza and Taylor Espinoza; his parents, Raul and Socorro Espinoza; his sister, Claudia Espinoza-Ben and her husband, Willie; and his nephew, Adrian Raul Espinoza; and many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, and other extended family members. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Salvador Leon, Maria Mendoza, Juan Espinoza, and Maria de la Luz Meza. He will be remembered with deep love by the family who meant everything to him and by all who were fortunate enough to know his kindness, humor, and generous spirit.

A Rosary will be held on October 5, 2026, from 5:15 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. at The Chapel of Ramsey Funeral Home, 5600 Williams Drive, Georgetown, Texas 78633, followed by Visitation from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Funeral Services will be held on October 6, 2026, from 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at Zion Lutheran Church, 6101 FM 1105, Georgetown, Texas 78626, with a Reception to follow from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. The family will hold a private graveside at Zion Lutheran Cemetery.

Raul’s life was defined by love—for his family, for people, for service, and for the simple joys that made life rich. His presence brought comfort, laughter, and strength, and his memory will continue to live on in the hearts of those he loved so well. His absence will be deeply felt by all who knew and loved him.
