My condolences to the entire Burciaga family. Just found out about Ramon going Home. I met Ramon on the Park 'N Ride and he would get dropped off in Anthony and ride off on his bike. He was very friendly and always had something funny to say to those he sat near at the front of the bus. He always talked about stopping in at his mom's for a delicious breakfast and a black cup of coffee. He also talked about his grandchildren and kids. He was a proud dad and granddad! I hadn't taken the Park 'N Ride to El Paso for six months until yesterday, and the driver asked me if I knew what had happened to Ramon--he had heard that Ramon had passed on. I told him I would check the internet. God bless you all and may your memories of such a good man uphold you.
