Well Dad they will be taking down your Guest Book in a few days.  This will be my last entry for your guest book but it certainly will not be the end that I speak to you, I will forever speak to you til the day I meet with you again!  It's still not easy or getting easier as these days pass by and now it has been 1 yr.  I need to believe that you are overlooking everything we do and guiding us "The Whole Family".  I love you dad, your daughter Laura Ann Ramirez

This will be the last note on your guest book as it will close on 7/3. No matter, you are always present in my mind and heart. It was a year 6/3 since you left, yet I feel your presence in the house, when I sit outside, when I take my walks. Wherever I go I feel your presence. I miss you terribly but I continue on with my life. Forever with me, Papa.

Daddy I didn't get the chance to eat our favorite pumpkin pie but you were truly missed. I love and miss you dearly.

Papa, first Thanksgiving without u n it was very difficult because it was your favorite. I am so grateful to GOD that we had u all those years. I love u n miss u. Watch over us, love Mama.

Papa, today marks 3 months since you left us. Not a day has gone by that we your family haven't thought of you. It gets easier day by day not to shed tears, we laugh a lot when we think of you because you brought us such joy. We love you. Watch over each of us and come visit us in our dreams. 
Til we meet again, Mama.

Popo you will forever be in my heart... Iloveyou so much... R.i.p...... See you one day....

It was beautiful just beautiful hearing stories about my uncle Mike and his family! My fondest memory of him was his visit to Grandma Eloisa's house in Victoria such a happy moment getting ready for his arrival.Grandma and Grandpa Miguel Ramirez now sit in heaven together drinking coffee and talking about the old days! I'm so glad to have had you in our lives even though we were a distance!  We love and miss you! Praise God your pain free, nothing missing, nothing broken! Just as God's word promised us!

My sincere condolences to the entire Ramirez Family.  May God Bless you Janie, Steve, Laurie and Kristi. The Few years that I was in Houston I feel I was part of your family.  Mike was a man of few words but he spoke to me each time I went to visit.  I guess because I was a bowler, we had something in common. I will miss his presence in the house when I go to visit.  You and your families will always be in my prayers.

Lovely and beautiful Ramirez family. My deepest condolences.  Mike is with God leisurely challenging Him to a bowling match so he can make more strikes than God.    My prayers and thoughts are you all.

My condolences to the Ramirez family & to my BFF Terri Salazar who is grieving the loss of her sweet uncle ... Sending thoughts an prayers to both families ...may your husband , dad, brother, uncle rest in peace ......

I had a wonderful time talking to my cousins last night. I know our lives go in different directions but no matter....the love is always there. Thank you all for sharing the beautiful stories of your dad...my uncle. The stories touched my heart deeply. I cried and smiled as I drove home.  God bless you Uncle Mike...keep smiling.  Terri Salazar, Charlie Salazar, Celeste and Leyla.

Years back I enjoyed bowling with Mike and Janie. They were a lot of fun. Mike was a very good bowler and he was a very good person. Sorry to say I lost touch with them once they stopped bowling. Janie, may God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Lori, I send you lots of hugs for the loss of your precious father... I can only imagine the pain in your heart. Hang in there sweet friend. 
Sincere condolences to the whole family... May God bring all of you comfort during your time of need...

My condolences to the Ramirez family.  May God bless you and give you healing.

Popo.... its still not real to me that you're gone.... you're the best and my only grandpa in the whole wide world.... R.i.p ilove & miss you sooo freakin much.... xoxo, #1grandaughter

My deepest sympathy goes out to the family. Really enjoyed knowing your Dad from the bowling days.

Dad (Popo) I hope you enjoyed the girls and I spending time and taking care of you while I was here. I forgot how funny you can be. You still managed to crack a joke here and there and I hope you know the pleasure was all mine. Coming back to Houston for a visit will NEVER EVER be the same but my memories of you will live forever. 
Much love from Ross, Kristi and the girls.

This is indeed a very sad time in our lives. At the same time my beloved Mike will be in our hearts until we join him. I want to take this opportunity to thank all of our family and friends who have supported and prayed for us during this difficult period. He was greeted by all the Angels who welcomed him with open arms and most certainly is in a better place. He is no longer suffering. He passed away in my arms, surrounded by our children and knowing that he was loved so much when he departed. I love you, Papa. He would always call me "Mama" and I would tease him that he called me that because he couldn't remember my name. He would just give me his 'hehehe'. So from Mama all my love.

Daddy I miss you so much!!! Words can not describe the emptiness I already feel for our loss.   Please come visit me in my dreams and surround your presence with ours.  Guide and protect my family and especially Mia Lynn & Ali Nicole Martinez your great grand daughters....

My deepest sympathy, May God wrap his Loving arms around each and everyone of you during this difficult time.

Our most sincere condolences to the entire Ramirez Family. During this difficult time, my you find comfort in each other and know that he is in a much better place than any of us. He continues to watch over each of you and his love will always be there for you. We know that God will give you the strength that you need during your time of loss. Good Bless

                                                     Daniel and Eva Gonzalez
