Isabel A. Ramirez was born July 8, 1932 and died peacefully at her home early December 17, 2011.  She was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother.  She was survived by her husband Jose L. Ramirez of 54 years; children Rachel, Mary, Joey, Elizabeth and grandchildren Victoria, Jose, Mark, Matthew and great-granddaughter Aubrey Mia.  Isabel was the oldest of seven.  Sisters Esther, Luisa, Stella; brothers David, Jeronimo, Arthur and Albert.

She brought so much happiness and joy to our lives and to all the other people that she came in contact with.  Isabel was a kind and warm hearted mother.  Whether being the one we went to for advise or just to sit down and visit, she was always willing to take the time out to spend with you.

She was a devoted Christian woman and shared the love of God with everyone.  She will be greatly missed.  Now she is in Heaven with Our Lord and Savior.
