Coach Ramos, Mike, Rocky and Family,
I just learned of your loss today. Mrs. Ramos touched the lives of so many kids in such a positive way. Among her many roles, she was our football team's unofficial "Team Mom." She was always around the team - cheering for us, offering congratulations, words of comfort, or prayers for our injuries. For our annual football banquet, she would cook for more than a day to prepare her famous lasagna - enough to feed the entire team! She derived such joy in supporting others.

Coach - you would read the Bible to the team before games as a source of strength. I pray that God gives you and your family that same strength, and the peace that passes all understanding.
