Roger entered the United States Army On May 15, 1986. He faithfully continued to serve his country through National Guard service for the next 20 years. Following his retirement from the service, Roger entered culinary school, inspired by his love of great food. Most recently, he had been working at North Shore Marina located on the Harlan County Reservoir, Republican City.

Survivors include his two sisters, Debbie Medrano, and her children, Juan and Eloisa Medrano; and Maria Gloria Ramos, and her children, Marita Avio and Vida Celestine Sanchez; along with many other relatives and friends.
Roger was preceded in death by his parents and a brother, Theodore Ramos, Jr.

We would randomly hang out around town. The sort of guy when it was freezing out and me with my no hair head he looked at me and said you look
cold. I am. So he gave me yhe hat off his head. I still have that green hat today with the American flag on the front, warmest I have. That's the sort of guy
Roger was a make a recipe and then
make it your own sort of guy. Just a good
guy.

It is with a heavy heart I learn of Roger's passing. He was my company clerk when we were both in McCook with Co. A 1-195 Armor. I will miss my brother in arms and will always remember "Roger Rabbit" in the office with a smile on his face. You did well soldier. You deserve to Rest In Peace. God Bless.
