He is survived by his daughter, Patricia Ramirez and grandchildren from Chatsworth; sister, Susie Contreras from San Jose; brother, Romie Contreras of Oxnard; grandchildren, Emilio, Elva, Manuel, Jackie, and Crystal; eight great-grandchildren; many nieces and nephews.

The family would like to thank Roze Room Hospice of Ventura County and Glenwood Care Center for their help and support. May God bless you Nino! Thank you for being a part of my life and may you rest in peace always. Love! Your God daughter, Patricia Guerra.
