A year has passed now since God decided a special  angel was needed in heaven. The sorrow and loss has not diminished,I  think of him and miss my brother Raul now as much as I did one year ago,and always will. The lives of the people Raul touched have been changed because of his passing. I know the memories we have of Raul will continue to comfort and bring  joy to all who knew him. With love always. ❤

Sorry it took awhile, because I am still in disbelief of my friend and brother leaving.  We spend a childhood as friends and as life went on it turned into a brotherhood.  As we went in to our adult life, many conversations were shared.  I can always look to my friend and brother to help me in life's challenges.  I can always count on Raul for the right decisions in life.   He was a true family man and should be recognized as a role model for a father.   Brother, I will miss you.   As long as I'm alive, I know that you are with me.  As much as it hurts, we here on earth will go on.  Our  heartfelt condolences to the family.   Love , Ernie & Lucy  and family 

Raul was my childhood friend,we grew up together. If he wasn't at our house, we were at his house. One of my fondest memories was watching cartoons together in the morning before school. Irma your brother was very proud of you and I know he loved you very much. I loved him dearly and he will be greatly missed.

May God and His promise of eternal life fill you with comfort, peace and hope during this very difficult time.  I know Raul was a blessing to so many and he will be missed very much by all who knew and loved him.  I'm so glad I got to see Raul and spend time reconnecting with my primo last summer in El Paso when he came out for my dad's funeral.  He was just as I remembered him, joyful, thoughtful and very kind to all.  He was so proud of his family and loved talking about each and every one of them.  

Such a beautiful soul. May he rest in peace.

Love,

Sylvia Grabner & Family

I was completely shocked by this news. My deepest condolensces to Raul's family.  I knew him for over 35 years,  working with him and Danny often during our oilfield years and most recently he was to build gates for us. Raul was a very energetic and happy person that had a very infectious laugh. A really great guy that will definitely be missed. So sorry for your loss and many prayers for comfort.

I miss my brother/my friend. 
I miss sharing my life,with a man of honor,dignity, trust and unwavering loyalty to family and friends.  Qualities that some people call "old school " were simply a way of life to Raul. He never judged the measure of others by, race,culture,financial wealth, nor material possessions. Always willing to come to the aid of a friend. Raul had a good time if he knew that you were having a good time. Raul was always truthful and sincere. Raul always stayed  true to his heritage and culture, never forgetting his roots and the friends he had since childhood.  Raul was proud of his accomplishments, but never boastful,  or vain. Most of all Raul  loved his family unconditionally.  There is a hole in my heart now, and I will forever cherish and remember, my world is a better place because of Raul Simental.  I  love you my brother.  

I am saddened by this unnecessary lost of this great friend of mine we grew up in the same neighborhood I remember hanging out at his house playing basketball. I thought he was cool because he had a nice car .He never treated me any different even though I was alot younger than him .Threw out the years we have stayed in contact with each other lunches together and me doing work for him.l will miss those phone calls saying when can you come and fix something. As I referred to him you will be deeply miss Mr Simental R.I.P

I want to give you my heartfelt condolences to the family.  I am so sorry for your loss.  I know that Raul loved his family very very much,  I'm praying for peace during this time. 
Love, Janice

R.I.P MY FRIEND !!! YOU ON GOOD HANDS !!WILL BE MISS 

My deepest condolences to the family.  My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
