Baby Brother
Up In heaven, past the moon
I love you 
I’ll miss you
Gone way too soon

Baby Brother
So sorry to see you go
Only God knows why
He must have needed you though

Baby Brother
Remember when . . .
So many memories
I laugh now,  about then

Baby Brother
You found your calling, I’m so proud
Accomplishments with accolades
You stood out in a crowd

Baby Brother
So lively, so undaunted
You lived your life 
The way you wanted

Baby Brother
We  will meet again
We’ll hug and laugh
Only God,  knows when

Baby Brother
Up in heaven, past the moon
I love you 
I’ll miss you 
Gone way to soon 

Rest In Peace Ron. I will forever cherish our memories and the difference you made in this world. I will miss you immensely. I love you with all my heart❤️



I Have known Ron Morales for over 20 years.
You get to know someone pretty well after 20 years.
You actually share your lives and family relationships.
and then. a little time goes by...
and one day, suddenly, everything has changed, 
everything is different.
and I asked myself, How can this be?...
We will all react and deal with his loss in our own way,
and get consolation.
Personally I feel robbed, as if he were stolen from all of us.
I will miss his stolen smile, his sense of humor, his conviviality,
his love of Sandra, his guiding light...
and above all I will miss his friendship.

Ron My Bud,
We laid you to rest. It was absolutely beautiful Today it feels final the tears won’t stop.
I sit here thinking of ALL the memories and adventures and I cherish every moment.
I wish we had more time but heaven needed you up there.
I can’t lie there’s this emptiness inside I feel like you took a piece of me with you.
The gratitude I feel for everything you added to my life is beyond words.
So I’ll say this 
Bud thank you for pouring into me, for seeing me and sharing this journey called LIFE with me.
Thank you for all the laughs, heart to heart talks and life gems you left me with.
I thank God everyday that he placed you in my life. 
Thank you for teaching me & opening my eyes to see myself the way God sees me strong, powerful, resilient ! A true world changer
In me Bud you will truly live on because this light in me that shines so bright will always reflect & carry a piece of you. 
I won’t say goodbye, I will say see you later ...
I love you Bud ! 
We will FOREVER be the DREAM TEAM !

Ron, bro, I still hear your voice and laughter - clear as day. I’m blessed to have had you as a ‘parè’ for eight years, and thank God we chilled, laughed and hugged one another all those times. I miss you and will forever cherish our friendship. 

Sending my heartfelt condolences… Love and prayers to you all…🙏

Wanted to share this photo of Marta and I, Richard and Ronnie

To:  Yoli, Mando, Denise Richard and Debbie. Our deepest Condolences.  Richard shared so many memories growing up and remembers how you made him feel special and treated his as one of your own.  His best  memories as a child were spent with you all at your house.  We got married in 1983 in Crystal City, TX and you made sure My Father-n- law Valentin, and Mother -n-law Delia were there, and Becky too.  You drove all those miles from California to Texas, to be part of our wedding.  Ronnie, Richard and Dave were break-dancing at our wedding.   Well, seems like yesterday but 38 years have gone by our kids are all grown, and Rick still talks about you all, and  he has nothing but gratitude admiration for you all.   Thank you for all the great memories. 

Ron was such an easy going guy and he will most certainly be missed;  Much too young and so much more to do.
My heart goes out to his family and especially to my friend Sandra.  Scott and I always enjoyed our time with the two of you!
God Bless you!

Ron and I met 10 years ago at the Filling Station PuB  in Mira Mesa. We bonded listen to oldies and talking about the good all days. We also love listening to Rock 105.3 The Show a radio talk show in the morning. We also bonded through his work compassion and love with photography which I once had when I was a freshman in high school. Ron had an eye for talent and will be sorely missed. Love you Ron my brother from another!!

I remember when he was living with me and my family he would always listen to Bob Marley, and download his music, I remember when he enjoyed barbecuing with the family almost every weekend. I remember when he went to my uncle birthday last year me and his brother Richard we we’re cracking jokes before we left to the birthday dinner. I remember when he would always mess with me I pretended I got hurt and then I’d be laughing. I remember the reunions when he would always have to be playing softball. 

I’ll miss him lots RIP Cousin 

Love Matteo 

I grew up a few blocks from Ronny and went to school with him.  Like many others I remember him as a sweet guy and very talented soccer player. My deepest condolences to his family. 

Michelle 

You will always be Ronnie to me. My first crush and first kiss. Your smile could light up a room. Even though I haven’t seen you in years, I will miss you. Rest easy, my friend 💕🙏🏻💕

Ron, I was so sad to learn of your passing.  We were friends in high school and beyond.  You were so sweet. Always smiling.  Everybody loved you.  I pray you rest in heavenly peace. God bless your family and loved ones.

Part 1~ I am deeply saddened and heartbroken  with the loss of my Beloved Little Brother, Ron.  Never did I imagine his life to be taken so soon.  Makes you realize how unpredictable  life  can be. However, God had other plans when he called him home. I am extremely THANKFUL & GRATEFUL for all the wonderful memories we shared over the years, which I will forever hold  dear in my heart. Little Bro was  quite a character. As a baby, we called him “Bumble Bee”, cute as can be with his curly hair.  Then he grew into this amazing little soccer player. As he became skilled with his fancy footwork, we called him “Pele”.  So talented, he went on to play Club Soccer and Varsity Soccer. Of course, with all his fancy footwork, he also showed up on the dance floor.  He loved to dance! 

Part3~ Little Brother, you know how much I Love  You. We lived our best days during our younger years, everlasting memories I am blessed with today.  I am super proud of you and all you’ve accomplished in your adult years.  You had amazing talent,  not  only  as an athlete and dancer, you were also very artistic and became an amazing photographer. As I view your work, I see so much passion behind the lens.  Just as you said “ When I Look At Life In The Camera, I Could Finally See It”.  With all the nicknames in your younger  years, you became famous in your own right, A CELEBRITY PHOTOGRAPHER, loved by so many!  Thank you Sandra and Tyler for loving my brother the way you did and still do. I’m sure you have beautiful memories engraved in your heart.  Ron, although my heart aches and life will never be the same without you, I know you are in a better place.  Give Dad and Grandpa a BIG HUG for me in Heaven. Really Gonna Miss You!
Until We Meet Again, 
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS,
Your Sister,  Deb♥️

Part 2~ When he began break dancing, we dubbed him “LEROY”. Then came the Cabbage Patch, Macarena & Electric Slide. He was always the life of the party!  Damn, I MISS HIM! Times when we went to the movies, we laughed so hard, until our stomachs hurt, we had to leave the movie. OMG  Little Bro did we have some good times. We  had so  many laughs, from birthday parties, weddings and even doing home improvements together.  And then life happened....Fast Forward. 

My dear friend Ron, my heart hurts as I learned of your passing today. A great friend I shared a lot of laughs with. I remember when I was in the Navy and was back in San Diego, you came to see me and have dinner to catch up. 

I will miss you, may you Rest In Peace .

Ronnie was such a sweet kid. I will always remember him as little guy trying to keep up with his brother and the bigger boys in the neighborhood. I am so glad I had the chance to reconnect with him on FB and get to know him as an adult. He was still the sweet as he was when he was a kid. I am so sorry for your loss. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.

Our beloved son Ron (My little Bumble Bee).  The heart break that we feel is insurmountable. 
We will miss you coming over and being sneaky looking for goodies and your Root Beer. 
Thank you for the great memories, especially those made in Maui and throughout your lifetime like always losing things. 
Proud of your many many accomplishments and of the great photographer you became. 
It fills our heart with joy knowing that you made your dreams come true and to know that so many loved you. 
We will miss your smile and especially the “Mom” hugs. 
God had his plan for you and we thank God that we got to see you one last time. 
We will forever carry you in our hearts with all the beautiful memories that you left us with. 
You were and always will be our caring and lovable son (our baby).
Love you with all our heart & soul,
Pop and Maaa

I cannot express how shocked I feel to hear of this news. Ron was always so much fun and had such a great zest for life. My friends and I were just with him a couple of weeks ago and I am so glad that we spent that time with him. I am deeply saddened and my very deepest condolences go out to his family and very especially to Sandra. He will be in my thoughts and prayers as will his family and loved ones. 

No words can ever express my love and gratitude, for the friendship we had growing up. From middle school and on to manhood, we remained thick as thrives! We have fallen out of contact my friend, but I have always held our  brotherhood near to my heart! Too many fond memories to recollect. My you Rest In Peace “Cab-Ron” 

My condolences to all who knew and loved you!

My deepest sympathy and condolences for Ron's family, his passing is very sad and shocking. Ron was always a pleasure to be with, always happy, smiling and having fun and, of course, capturing those fun moments in his camera. He was a kind and gentle person with a lot of friends who truly appreciated him. He was an amazing person and will be truly missed. May He rest in peace.😇

Heartfelt condolences to the family and friends. May perpetual light shine upon him and Rest In Peace.
