Charles Ramirez, aka Charlie Horse, was born in Houston, Texas July 21st of 1960. He is the son of Cruz Ramirez and Oralia Pena. His name lives through all his brothers and sisters, his wonderful woman Liza, his children and grandchildren. On November 13, 2022, he was reunited with our Lord and Savior as well as all of his loved ones he dearly missed. Living life, he spent much time with his family, creating wonderful memories and sharing unforgettable moments we will all treasure forever. He could fix anything and make you smile all in the same day. He told us he started getting into mechanics as a young age when he and his brothers would fix lawn mowers as kids to use and make money. He was even good at fixing things around a house. It was said, he learned it from his dad because he believed in doing things yourself. Our father had one of the biggest hearts. He was quick to help his family and friends, showing his love and support for everything they decided to do. He had love for all Calaveras club members and would often tell us, "I don't care if I meet some of my brothers for the first time, I tell them I love them all, because that's what part of being in a brotherhood is." Though our dad is no longer with us, his spiritual presence will forever be among us in anything we do through our lives. Rest in peace Dad, may you rejoice and dance in heaven forever.
