I am saddened by the news of Ramon´s death. He was a good man. I remember his smile and his humor. He was always laughing and telling jokes. Although it´s been many years since we worked together at Runnels Mud, I have fond memories of all the good times we had. He will be missed. Prayers for Connie and the family.
