Xavier Michael Arambula

Xavier Michael Arambula, 21, passed away surrounded by family members, friends, and the love of his life, Zoey Frampton, at St Alphonsus in Boise, Idaho. He was born at Holy Family Regional Hospital in Spokane, WA, on July 15, 2003, to his mother Monique and father Aurelio. 

He moved back to Twin Falls, Idaho, just before his 2nd birthday. He attended school in Hansen, Kimberly, and Twin Falls, where he met his ever-growing group of friends. None were closer than Dominique Urrabazo and Bradly Hudelson, who became more like brothers. His older sister, Aaliyah Arambula, and younger brothers, Jeremy and Caden Dutt, were always with him, enjoying their shared love of the outdoors. The siblings’ favorite pastimes included hunting, fishing, camping, hiking, walking, working out in the gym, going to concerts, and listening to music. Jeremy and Xavier began their journey of fighting wildland fires together last summer, hoping to turn that experience into a lifelong career.

Xavier had the best laugh that was contagious to all who heard it and the most genuine smile that lit up the room. He made friends feel like family and family feel like friends. To know Xavier was to love him!

Xavier was preceded in death by his grandfather (Aurelio Arambula II) and grandmother (Sally Gulick).

He is survived by his parents, Monique (Juan) Martinez, Aurelio (Mariah) Arambula III, Shawn (Katie) Dutt, siblings Aaliyah (Alex) Arambula, Jeremy Dutt, and Caden Dutt, step-siblings, grandparents Deborah Dunning, Michael & Ellen Dunning, and Marie Arambula, along with cousins, aunts, and uncles.

A celebration of life will be held at a later date.
