Raymond Ramon, age 62, of Garland, Texas, passed away peacefully on September 13, 2026, surrounded by the love of his family. He was born on August 28, 1964, in San Antonio, Texas.

Raymond was a loving husband, devoted father, proud grandpa, cherished brother, and a truly special friend. Above all, he was an incredible family man. To the people who knew and loved him, Raymond was so much more than those titles. He was someone you could count on, someone who would lend a helping hand without hesitation, and someone whose presence could make life a little brighter.

Raymond shared his life and his heart with his beloved wife, Rosemary Ramon. Their life together was filled with love, laughter, memories, and the simple moments that become the most precious ones. One of those special things they enjoyed doing together was building LEGO sets. Side by side, they could sit together, work on the pieces, talk, laugh, and simply enjoy being with one another. It may have seemed like something small, but those quiet moments together were a beautiful reflection of their relationship. Raymond didn't need anything fancy to be happy—sometimes all he needed was Rosemary beside him and time together.

As a husband, Raymond loved in the way he knew best: by being there. He showed his love through the things he did, the problems he helped solve, the laughter he shared, and the steady presence he gave to the people closest to him. He and Rosemary created a life and a family together, and the love they shared will continue to live on in the family they built.

Raymond was also a beloved son and brother. He was the son of Reymundo G. Ramon and Beatrice, and was also loved by his stepmother, Debbie Ramon. He shared the bond of family with his siblings Bobby, Rachel, Tony, Ricky, Nicole, Alex, and Haley. Like all families, they shared their own stories, memories, laughter, and moments that made their bond unique. Those memories will remain a part of Raymond's story and a reminder of the family he loved.

Raymond was a proud father, affectionately known as “Pops” to Amanda and her boyfriend, Henry; Raymond Jr. and his wife Jessica, Christina, and Armando and his wife Amy. His children were a huge part of his heart, and he loved watching them grow and build families of their own. He was always there when they needed him—with advice, a helping hand, a laugh, or simply his presence. 

He taught his children more than he probably ever realized. Through his hard work, his willingness to help others, his love for his family, and the way he approached life, he showed them what it meant to take care of the people you love.

And even when words weren't necessary, his children knew they were loved.

Then came his grandchildren, who brought another kind of joy into his life: Raymond Jr. IV, Angel, Jay, Savannah, Ava, Maya, Layla, and D'Andre. 

Being a grandpa—Pa-Paw—was something Raymond treasured deeply. Each grandchild held a special place in his heart. Being a grandpa gave him another generation to love, spoil, teach, tease, and make memories with.

His grandchildren will remember him not only as their grandpa, but as someone who made them feel loved simply by being there. They will grow older and continue to tell stories about him. They will remember the things he said, the things he did, his sense of humor, his personality, and all the little things that made him uniquely theirs.

And one day, when they see an old car, hear a familiar saying, work with their hands, or find themselves doing something he taught them, they will think of Pa-Paw Raymond.

That is how someone lives on.

Raymond was also a great mechanic. Working on cars wasn't simply something he did—it was part of who he was. He wasn't afraid to get his hands dirty, crawl under a car, get covered in grease.

He had a gift for understanding cars and fixing what was broken. But more than that, he loved helping people. If someone needed help with a car, Raymond was the person they could call. He shared his knowledge, his time, and his talents freely.

He spent much of his life fixing things, helping people, loving his family, and making memories.

And now, there are some things even the best mechanic can't fix—and losing Raymond is one of them.

But the love he gave us doesn't need fixing.

It will stay with us forever.

Raymond leaves behind a family who will carry his love and memory with them every day. His life will continue through his wife, his children, his grandchildren, his brothers and sisters, his extended family, and the many friends whose lives he touched.

He will be missed in the big moments and in the little ones.

He will be missed when the family gathers together.

He will be missed when a car needs fixing.

He will be missed when a LEGO set is being built.

He will be missed in the laughter, the stories, the family jokes, and the quiet moments when someone wishes they could hear his voice one more time.

But most of all, he will be missed simply because he was Raymond—and there will never be another him.

You spent your life taking care of the people you loved. You fixed what you could, helped whenever you could, and gave your family memories they will carry forever.

Your hands may no longer be turning wrenches, but the life you built will continue through all of us.

We love you forever and always.

Rest easy, Son, Brother, Husband, Pops, Pa-Paw, Brother in-law and Uncle Raymond.

Your work here is done.
