In Loving Memory of Ralph Manuel Ramirez, Jr.

April 6, 1978 – August 13, 2025

Ralph Manuel Ramirez Jr., affectionately known as Ralphie, was born on April 6, 1978, in La Mirada, California, and passed away on August 13, 2025, at the age of 47.

Ralphie was a devoted son, a proud father to his two sons, Ralphie III and Anthony, and a loving grandfather to his two cherished grandchildren, Ralphie IV and Amelia. He shared a special bond with his sister and brothers, and was also cherished by his extended family, including aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, and nephews, all of whom felt his love and warmth.

He worked hard throughout his life and was known for living life his own way. Ralphie was a passionate sports fan who loved cheering for the Dodgers and the Raiders, finding joy and connection in every game.

Though he faced struggles in life that brought challenges to his health, Ralphie's story is also one of resilience, love, and the unbreakable ties of family.

He will be deeply missed and lovingly remembered always.
