away on May 29, 2023 at his residence surrounded by his loving wife

Book Company in Chicago, IL and retired from The Chocolate Factory in
Mansfield, MA.
He enjoyed spending time in his garden growing sunflowers, fruits and
vegetables. Ramon also enjoyed playing his numbers, pool, and winning
a round of dominos. Ramon was known for being fashionably late,
dressed to the nines in his fedora and button-down shirt, always
making a grand entrance. He was kind, always joking around, and made
the funniest faces. He truly had a smile that would light up any room.
