Ram the man. Forever in our hearts. Isaac and I will miss you and always think about you. We will remember our Graham Central dancing days and our barbecue get togethers. Isaac will make you proud one day with his barbecue for the family. We will love and support your beautiful family for the rest of our lives. You were an inspiration to us all. Great family man, provider, and friend. The strongest man I know. Until we meet again

Our deepest heartfelt sympathy to the Barrera  Families. May God give you the peace that surpasses all understanding. 

Frank and The Campis Family. 

I’ll always remember Uncle Ram for his vivacious love for his family and life. I was blessed to come to Texas for Thanksgiving Break while attending college and see my Texas family five years in a row. Whenever I was with Uncle Ram he would always remind each of us the positive things in life we all should be thankful for. He always had a smile on his face and let nothing get him down in front of anyone. That kind of love is rare and I was so happy to have felt his love. Uncle Ram I’m so happy you’re up with our Amazing Lord eating all the food you loved, and taking long strolls wherever you want, you are so loved and will be missed everyday until we meet again! I know you’re always in my heart and watching over me and I hope I can only be half as positive as you were everyday! Until we meet again.
Your loving Niece, 
Caitlyn

We hung out when I worked at VNA and Hospice and you were the good old days at ARJON's with Laura and the girls I'm so sorry I didnt reconnect with yo before God called you home your a stand up brother and will be missed .

Ram was always saving the day for me , from cooking all the food for my wedding to cooking for my daughters first birthday! He was always there when we needed a hero! I will never forget his laugh and how when we all got together he was such a good time! Ram you will always be special to my little family! We love you Ram

Ram was so special to me. When i was a little baby i was screaming and crying, mommy and daddy couldn’t get me to stop crying Ram said hand her over to me and as soon as i got into his arms i stopped crying and he rocked me to sleep. Ram will forever be in my heart. I love you Ram!

Ram had become a dear friend to me in recent months and his passing is a terrible tragedy for all of us who knew him. You and your family have my deepest sympathy.

I know that Ram came from a good family that loves him very much, as he did to them.   He always spoke in the most glowing terms of how much his family meant to him.

Ram was an inspiration to my daughter and I.  I admired all the wonderful qualities that made him the special person that he was.  He was an intelligent, witty, and charming man with a kind hearted soul that made him a great friend.

I will always be thankful that I had the opportunity to get to know him and to call him a friend.  I will cherish his memory for years to come.  Ram is my hero for giving us the time he shared with us.

 “O LORD, you hear the desire of the afflicted; you will strengthen their heart; you will incline your ear.” Psalm 10:17


We will never forget the first time we met Ram. We were visiting Texas and Laura brought her new boyfriend to meet her Oregon Family. He drove up in a green truck and as he got out of the vehicle he pulls out this over sized stuffed Santa he bought for our oldest child. He was very giddy and had a huge smile on his face. Needless to say the Santa was huge and I was wondering how in the heck are we going to get it home on a plane. When he gave it to our gal she was all smiles and immediately loved snuggling against it.  
Ram loved his girlfriend and wanted to woo her family because he knew one day he was going to marry her. So thankful they married because he was the best person for her.  Not only was he a wonderful husband but a loving father!  You will be missed but thankful you are now an angel still loving your family and watching from above!!!

There are no words to explain the loss we are all feeling without you here. I know that you gave it all you had and you surpassed the odds but selfishly, I still wanted you to blow the odds out of the water and live to be 100 like you promised me when I was 9 years old. At the same time, I count myself tremendously lucky to have been given the time I had because you were undeniably, the GREATEST dad in the entire world. Yeah, you were sometimes stubborn, proud, brutally honest, and never lost an argument but at the same time, you were thoughtful, supportive and understanding when I most needed you to be. You set the precedent to always strive to be better, to do better and be more, and to never stop learning. I will continue to do everything in my power to be at least half of the parent and person you were and I promise that my kids will always know what an amazing dad you were and where their good looks came from!

I will miss you every second of everyday for the rest of my life. 

Love you forever, 

Ruby


Grandpa,

My favorite thing about you was knowing that every time we'd say goodbye, it would end with me saying, "see you later, alligator" and your response was always, "in while, crocodile." I promise I am going to make you very proud and when I'm older and on my way to Mars, I know you'll be there with me. Also, don't worry--I promise to tell Lukey all about you. I'll miss you.

See you later, alligator. 

Love, 
Jonathan

So Blessed to have so many memories with Ram.  He was always ready to have some laughs and a good time. And i mean alot of laughter. Staying up late playing cards of course he would pretty much beat us. Loved when he would come and cook for all of us. When he cooked everyone would come. We were not just an Uncle and Aunt we became great friends able to lean on each other like we are doing now.  We love this guy and will never forget him.  Thank you Ram for all the laughs and love you showed us and our family. 

Ram,

I will always remember the time we were going to Graham's.   We were walking in and you and Laura we walking behind me and you noticed a string hanging from my new shirt.  You decided the best way to fix it was to light a match to it and since you didn't have a match but you did have a lighter that you would fix it that way and in the process it made a big hole in my favorite new shirt.   You should of seen the look in your face.  It was so funny and to this day we still laugh about it.

Ram, I want to thank you for being should a good husband and father.  I know that you loved Laura and my grandchildren very
much and that always made me happy.  

Love you,
Belen

Your true love Laura 

Ram the memories that I have of you will forever be branded in my heart!  I know you are now made whole you are making that joyful noise(talking and even yelling) as  you are now running down the streets of Gold and you are feasting at the dinner table with the Lord and all of your loved ones.  Thank you for being such a respectful, kind and loving man.  You shared far more then love and compassion, you showed me how to live, laugh, smile and to have peace even in the midst of the storm.  The words that you spoke weather verbal or by Tobi left an impact on my life!  I want to thank you NEPHEW for all the years you blessed me with all the laughter, jokes, heartaches and tears ( the heartaches and tears were mine).  You were a Wonderful Son, Brother, Husband, Father, Grandfather, Nephew, Uncle and Friend to so many.  Ram It's not goodbye! It's I will see you later!  For one day we shall all see each other again that is God's Promise!
