It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved son, Hiren Erandio Baltazar, who left this world on March 16, 2025, at the age of 21. Hiren was a light in our lives, and his absence has left an irreplaceable void.

Born on September 23, 2003, in London, England. Hiren brought joy, laughter, and love to everyone who knew him. His kind heart, infectious smile, and bright spirit will be deeply missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Hiren was a natural leader from a young age, serving as a Company Commander in his high school's JROTC program. His dedication, discipline, and commitment to excellence were evident in all that he did.

Hiren graduated with two degrees in Mathematics and Liberal Arts from Mt. San Jacinto College before transferring to California State Polytechnic University, Pomona, where he majored in Architecture. His dream was to found an architecture firm with his friends.

Hiren had a natural curiosity and developed a passion for fitness, computers, cars, and anime. He treasured spending time with his family and looked forward to our trips and adventures. Hiren embraced every day with enthusiasm and energy. His compassion for others and his warm spirit made him a friend to all, and his love for his family was unwavering.

Hiren leaves behind his grieving parents, Michelle and Mark Baltazar; three younger sisters, Emsel, Emily, and Emma; grandparents, Judy Binondo, Val McMahon, Mariano, and Juliana Baltazar; as well as many extended family members, aunts, uncles, cousins, close friends, classmates, and colleagues who loved him deeply.

Though his time with us was far too short, his memory will live on in the hearts of those who were touched by his love and spirit. Hiren will always be remembered for his kindness, his laughter, and the joy he brought to everyone around him.

A private memorial service to honor Hiren will be held on April 12, 2025, from 2:30 PM to 8:30 pm at England Family Mortuary in Temecula. All who knew him are invited to join us in celebrating his life and the love he gave so freely.

Rest in peace, Hiren. You will forever be loved, missed, but never forgotten.
