Ralph 'James' Kramer passed away at the age of 36 on Sunday November 16, 2025.

James was born and raised in Idaho and graduated from Mountain Home High School in 2007. He continued his education in California through the Universal Technical Institute and resided in California for the remainder of his days.

James' passions included music, hunting, fishing, woodworking, and helping with mechanical work or any handiwork for those in need. He was known for his loving and supportive nature toward all his friends and family. With a wonderful sense of humor, a charismatic spirit, and a deeply generous heart, he touched everyone around him. Above all, he poured his soul into being a devoted father to his son, Theodore.

James is survived by his fiancé Heather and son Theodore, his mother Emma Designs, his father Ralph Kramer (Denise), his siblings Luis Vasquez, Beatrice Bonning (Fred), Jesse Vasquez, Daye Lynn Renner (Michael), Carrie Siler (Brian), Taffy Martin (Brian), Victoria Claude (Alex), Mary Kramer, Michelle Kramer, and an extended family of many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and great friends. James is preceded in death by his brother Ruben Vasquez.

In lieu of flowers, donations to the family are greatly appreciated.
