We are gathered here today to remember the life and times of Jose Ramos, who passed away on September 15, 2025, at the ripe old age of 82. Jose was born on March 2, 1943, in Queens, New York, and spent his entire life causing chaos and laughter wherever he went.

Jose was known for his love of practical jokes, terrible puns, and questionable fashion choices. He could always be counted on to liven up any party with his wild dance moves and uncanny ability to find the humor in any situation.

Despite his penchant for mischief, Jose was a devoted father to his four children. He may not have always set the best example, but he always made sure his kids knew how much he loved them (even if his idea of showing affection was a well-timed whoopee cushion prank).

Jose also leaves behind eight grandchildren, who will surely miss his silly antics and infectious laughter. They may never fully understand why their grandpa insisted on wearing plaid shorts with striped socks, but they will always cherish the memories of his outrageous jokes and warm hugs.

So let us raise a glass (preferably one filled with his favorite drink, tequila) to Jose Ramos, a man who lived life to the fullest and brought joy to all who knew him. Rest in peace, dear friend, and may your spirit continue to spread laughter and love wherever it goes.
