Just because he’s my dad and I miss him❤️

Dad playing Polly pocket with his Tater-Tot ☺️🥹. He gave her that nickname when she was a baby🫶🏼.  He was always proud that little miss Tay had his smile and attitude ☺️.

My brother in law , you will be missed but never forgotten,  you asked us to always look out for your 3 girls and that we will do , they will always be taken care of , we know they were your heart . R.I.P. Raul we love you ❤️

My sincerest condolences to the family, friends and all impacted by the loss of Raul.

Raul you definitely contributed to so many lives and we're grateful to have known you. You are missed.

May your soul rest in eternal peace. 

Comfort and strength to all.

My friend Raul. you have left us too soon. My deepest condolences to your family.

Once in a lifetime a friend like you Raul comes along. You were blessed with a unique ability to build close friendships and bonds with so many people. I was so fortunate i got to know you and could count you my close friend. It always felt like talking with you benefited me and brought me at ease. Grateful our roads came together.

Raul was a best friend, and you knew it because when he told you something it was straight. He didn't think a real friend should be anything less. Trust and honesty were a big part of who Raul was, and that would draw you to him. What sealed it was how much fun he was just to be around him. The times he made me laugh stays with me as some of my best memories ever. Can't fill the empty place left, my memories of him helps. Since the time we were both in our 20's we were friends. We've planted things, ran trails and races, canoed waterways, bicycled along an ocean shore, traveled down roads and flew places, drank in celebration, and broke bread.

Thank you for everything!

GOD bless you Raul.  Never forgotten.  Forever missed.

It is with a heavy heart that I try to express in words what Raul meant not only to me, but anyone blessed or lucky enough to have known him. The best way for me to describe him is that he was someone that had a zest for life and energy (with a little bit of Red Bull added) to match.  He was a giving and selfless person, a teacher, a preacher, a friend, co-worker, and a straight shooter. I was one of the few in our group that was never put in a headlock or wrestled to the ground by him! Luckily for me he respected his elders. Raul was a real-life superhero that could save the day and if he could not take care of the problem, then he knew of someone that could.  He had friends in high and low places and was admired by all for his great work ethic and unique skills. Raul was always willing to share his knowledge with others and eager to learn what he did not know.  The only photos I have of him are ones in which he was working, as if work was his natural habitat. I will not say goodbye, as Raul will always be with me in the memories and great times we shared. I will simply say, “thank you” for being part of my life and a dear friend. Godspeed!

Raul Dios te tenga en la gloria y puedas descansar en paz. No tuve el privilegio de conocerte en persona, pero si pude ver en fotos cuán feliz estabas con mi prima Idenisse y su hijo Adrián. Se que ahora los estarás cuidando desde el cielo. Solo le pido a Dios consuelo para sus corazones 🙏

Raul,
Thank you for always being present whenever I needed you in absence of your brother and never letting my girls down when they called for any advice, help or just needed a big hug from their Tio.
You where there for all of us from day one. It feels like there's a void in my heart but I realize that it is not a void it's part of your memory and a stamp that will be there forever. Thank you for the laughs, cries and the strength you had for me and the family. I love 
you for being an awesome brother in law, Until we meet again.
RIP 
Laura Yerena

Familia Almonte Guzmán:
Raúl solamente te podemos dar las GRACIAS por todos estos años de amor y felicidad que les brindaste a mi hermana Idenisse y sobrino Adrián, gracias a ti conoció nuevamente el amor y mi sobrino tuvo la oportunidad de conocer el calor, afecto y amor de un padre, porque así siempre lo trataste. Las memorias y los gratos recuerdos que crearon durante todos estos años quedarán por siempre en sus corazones, y se que les has dejado un vacío muy grande y ellos te extrañaran mucho pero también tengo la certeza que tú les dará las fortaleza para que ellos puedan continuar hacia adelante.

Estarás por siempre en nuestros corazones por todo ese amor que les brindaste a ellos y aunque una vez nos diste las gracias por estar en nuestra familia, nosotros fuimos los afortunados y privilegiados de conocerte y tenerte en nuestra Familia Almonte Guzmán. 

Gracias Raúl Yerena.

Familia Gúzman:
Raúl compartir contigo durante nuestro viaje a PUNTA CANA fue un placer para nuestra familia, eras de esas personas que se daba a querer al conocerle a la primera vista. Tu le preguntaste a Idenisse que tenías que hacer para dejarle una buena impresión a nuestra familia y Ella te dijo solamente se tu mismo, con eso te robaste el corazón de todos nosotros y has dejado un vacío en cada uno de nosotros.
Gracias por darnos la oportunidad de conocerte y apreciar el extraordinario ser humano que eras.
Te extrañaremos por siempre.

Oh Raul - first off,  thank you for being my first friend at LJA. Thank you for being the greatest mentor. If I asked a question, you would say “come on I’ll just show you”. It is because of you, I know the walls of LJA. I believe it’s safe to say that whether someone knew you for a day or 15 years, you managed to impact them somehow. When you walked in a room, you made everyone smile.. we were always waiting for that joke. Thank you for making us laugh. My heart truly hurts, but I have a peace of mind knowing your heart is free. 

My only regret is not taking pictures with you but I’ll cherish our memories forever. 

Until next time my friend, with an ice cream in our hand.

Raul was a very special person.  He was a great employee and, even more, he was a great guy!
He was always there when you needed him and he was very imaginative in his job.

Raul and I discussed many subjects and I valued his opinion on many things, particularly his knowledge about growing things.  He helped me learn how to grow some really good peppers!

I know Raul is in a better place and he is not feeling any pain or suffering.

I will miss him.

Once in a decade or two, we are blessed to meet a person as unique and special as Raul. They fly in and out of our presence like tiny stars radiating so much power and energy. I sometimes wonder if they are real. And if they are real, how do they sustain such a constant joy and zest for life? Is it genuine?
I knew Raul for just 110 days. Three and a half months. But even in that brief time, it was clear to me that he was 100%, in every way. Raul was true to himself and open to all. He spoke his mind but always in a spirit of counsel and connection. If Raul felt frustrated with you, he would say so plus he would explain why. If you wanted to know how he felt about you, all you had to do was ask. But if he thought it necessary, Raul would tell you what he was thinking, even if you did not ask. Raul was generous with his time, open with his knowledge, and always willing to share his heart. It pains me to speak of him in the past tense. But…
I miss the steaks he once cooked for us.
I miss the off-color jokes he would tell.
I miss the mini lectures he would give on Stoicism.
I miss watching him as he repaired absolutely ANYTHING.
Most of all, I miss him.
Rest in peace Raul. Thanks for always being awesome.

Raul, there's so much to say, I don't know where to begin, but I know in your heart you knew how much I appreciated everything you did for me. You helped me in my toughest times, you gave me the greatest wisdom & taught me so much in the many years we worked together. Both know I wasn't the easiest to deal with in the beginning, but you had patience and saw potential. You were my boss, friend & mentor. You will forever be in our hearts, till we meet again friend.

Rest easy dad. I love you and thank you for letting us know you made it and you’re living again. Please enjoy our shorten video of life with him. Mom, Taylen and I live with parts of you. Until we meet again, we hold you in our hearts. We LOVE YOU pop-umms! 🤍

Raul Yerena, you were one of a kind. A type of person you encounter once in your lifetime. An anomaly, if you will. Raul was the definition of intensity, determination, and hard work. You taught me to never give up no matter how tough a situation is and to keep fighting. I carry that ethic and your many lessons with me to this day. I would not be where I am today without your guidance. I am eternally grateful. Rest easy Raul, you deserve it.
