Ramon had a special relationship with all his cousins, whom he thought of as siblings. He had a special brotherly bond with his cousin Peter Encarnacion, who was always there for him regardless of the distance. He loved all his aunts and uncles, especially his Titi Cucha, Ruth Encarnacion and Titi Tita, Maria Rivera (Luis). His uncles Lucas (Virginia) Encarnacion, Josue D. (Maritza) Encarnacion, Josue S.

Ramon was proud of his most recent endeavor of opening his own construction company, Lino Caulking. He loved sending pictures to his loved ones of his jobs and hanging off skyscrapers.

Ramon will always be remembered by his friends and family as a loyal person. Countless times he put himself aside for those in his circle. The family will deeply miss his amazing sense of humor, his sarcastic remarks, and his infectious laughter. The family would like to thank all those who phoned and prayed for Ramon. The hole in our family will only be filled by the memories of whom he has left behind and the hope that he is now resting and we will someday be together again.
