Pauline Ramirez Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Colonial-Wojciechowski Funeral Homes - Chicago on Oct. 21, 2024.
Pauline Ramirez "Nito, Wela, & Mami" passed away peacefully at home in Chicago, IL on Saturday October 19, 2024 surrounded by those she loved dearest.
Pauline was the beloved wife of Jose Ramirez for 67 years, loving mother of Joey, Louis, Cook, Rosie, Michael, Rich, Jeanette, Dave, Pete & Eddie; cherished grandmother to her 22 grandchildren; proud great-grandmother to her 28 great-grandchildren; and beloved aunt and sister.
She was born in Chicago, IL and met her life partner Jose in 1956, and they got married in 1957. Together, they resided in Tampa, FL for a little over 40 years.
Anyone who knew Pauline, knew she not only lived for her family, but she thrived at local garage/yard sales, crossword puzzles, Walmart extravaganzas, dancing, church on Sundays, ensuring the laundry was always done, and made sure Bustello was always brewing on the stove.
She loved walks, spending time at the park/beach, the and the cold weather. She made the world's best stuffing, pork chops, fried chicken, and always made sure your belly was full. Pauline was generous, loving, thoughtful, joyous, supportive, and truly always optimistic. She will be dearly missed, but as she would say "other than that, everything else is okay".

I wish there were words of comfort that could stop all this pain. However, that's not the way God / the Universe works. We feel it all.

I knew Pauline (mom) for 18 years. Not as long as many of the people in her life, but I watched her and saw a lot. She welcomed me into the family and cared for me greatly, never making me feel like an outsider. I will remember the things she did for my family, the love she showed me, Joey and the boys and her selfless nature.

While the world is hard and loud and anger and negativity are all we seem to hear about, there are softer and quieter things in life. A mother's touch, the small acts of love and kindness she gives. Mom was the embodiment of a strong woman who showed her love through Acts of Service. She always made sure everyone was fed, her home was clean and she took care of people. Not just blood family, but everyone.

The words Joey would say after his daily conversation with his mom will forever be in my mind - "Babe, mom says she loves you - guys Wela says she loves you!". "Love you mom .. love you Wela, bendición!"

I love you Mom. Bendición in Heaven. Because there is no doubt in my mind that's exactly where you are. May you be held in God's arms in Paradise for eternity. Because you deserve nothing less.
