When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me, and I am not here to see. If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me, I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, the way you did today while thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say. I know how much you love me, as much as I love you. And each time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without... see more
When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
When tomorrow starts without me, and I am not here to see. If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me, I wish so much you wouldn’t cry, the way you did today while thinking of the many things we didn’t get to say. I know how much you love me, as much as I love you. And each time you think of me, I know you’ll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me, please try to understand, that Jesus came and called my name, and took me by the hand. He said my place was ready in Heaven, far, far above, and that I would have to leave behind all those I dearly love.
So, when tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart. For every time you think of me, I’m right there in your heart.
The Decena, White, Marrero & Ramirez families acknowledge with deep appreciation all acts of kindness extended to them during this time of bereavement. May God bless you all for your thoughtfulness, Love and concern.

First of all my deepest condolences to all the family. Señor Ramon was such a caring and considerate man. There are a couple of things that come to mind when remembering him:

1. No matter what he did, he always made sure "mama" was taken care of first. He loved her so much and it was evident.
2. He had a mean dominoe game. He would always advocate to play this game all day!
3. He enjoyed playing his money games (bingo, pokeno, blackjack). He had a special dime he called his lucky charm. It was so dirty and rusty looking but he would never give it up.
4. He LOVED playing Poker. The sass in him always came out during this game.
He was much respected and loved by many people. May he now sleep in peace and enjoy eternity with mama. less
I will remember Don Ramon as a gentleman and a caring person.personality I fill honor on sharing with him and Doña Jenny priceless moments at my brother Abel and Evelyn house rest in peace Don Ramon and Doña Jenny.
My fondest memories of Don Ramon was his sweet tooth. He would come from his walk with a bag full of cookies and candies. My second memory was the love he had for his wife Dońa Juana. My condolences to the family and he will be deeply missed.
The best memory was seeing his pleasantly surprised smile when Mom & I beat him & Abel in Dominos during the cruise to Panama. They under estimated Mom! I can’t play, but she sure knew how. Lol. That trip was very memorable & I’m glad he finally... moreThe best memory was seeing his pleasantly surprised smile when Mom & I beat him & Abel in Dominos during the cruise to Panama.

My fondest memory of Ramon is him sitting in front of the tv watching his baseball and the way he would speak to us kids..soft spoken and humble. He loved our grandmother so much and always took care of her. He will be missed.
Our mother and Ramon were married for over 40 years. She would often express how much he did for her and how she appreciated all of it. She loved him very much.

We will remember Ramon for his passion for baseball, his great game of dominoes, and his love for the Dominican Republic. He was always a gentleman. We will miss you. Ramon, rest in peace.
