Condolences
"To the Ramos Famly, So sad to hear of the sudden death of your dad. It was always nice to see your mom and dad together at different events, at church, the St Jude novenas, etc. They both were so involving with the different organizations and social activities and it was always nice to see them and then your mom was called to her Eternal Glory last November. But there was your sweet dad, still strong and being involved. Reminded me so much of my dad who is also now enjoying his Glory with God. Mr Ramos, will miss you and your pleasant greetings everytime we ran into each other, mainly at the 4:30 mass. My heartful condolences to your dear family."
