Americo Joseph Ramos, 82 of Vero Beach passed away May 18, 2026 at his home.

 "Ray" was a devoted husband who shared nearly 60 beautiful years of marriage with the love of his life, Pat. Together they built a home filled with love, patience, and understanding. He was a proud father to three children David, Stephen, and Lisa. Ray's family was the center of his world.

As a dedicated Papa, Ray found immense joy in spending time with his eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. He never missed an opportunity to cheer them on and celebrate their accomplishments. Family gatherings were always his favorite occasions because they brought everyone together with good food and laughter.

Ray was known for his kindness and being a self-proclaimed "people person." He was a man who was slow to anger, saw the best in everyone, and had a sense of humor that could brighten even the darkest day. He worked hard throughout his life and took pride in helping to provide for the people he loved.

Ray's love and dedication will remain an inspiration to everyone who knew him. He leaves behind a legacy of compassion, strength, and unconditional love. His memory will continue to live on through his family and friends.

May he rest peacefully, forever remembered, and forever loved.
