Ramon Padilla Sr.

Ramon Padilla Sr., 62, passed away on April 11, 2014. The Lord called upon the Padillas’ Family Rock only to start them a new heavenly home. Ramon, husband, father, and grandpa, was a good man. Though a hard man at times, he loved his family more than anything he bought, earned, or was ever given. He wasn’t materialistic and was a straight shooter whether those around him liked it or not. Beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend, he raised his family to be good and taught those around him to let go, to love one another and to work hard for anything they wanted to achieve. He was greatly admired by his children, who will always think the world of him. He will always be in his family’s hearts, minds, and will never be replaced. “We know you’re in a better place and we’ll see you in our new home Ramon”- Love your family.
