RAMON ERNESTO QUERO ESPINOZA March 12, 1913 - July 18, 2003 It is with saddened hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, uncle and friend. On Friday, July 18, 2003, at Seven Oaks General Hospital surrounded by his family and friends, our beloved father passed away at the age of 90 years. He was born in Cauquenes, Chile, the youngest of 12 children of Francisco and Juana. Ramon is survived by his loving wife Flor (nee Gonzales) of 57 years; and their five children, Fidelisa (Luis), Juana, Miryam (Enrique), all of Winnipeg, Reinaldo (Juana), Ramon (Veronica) (Rosa) of Santiago, Chile; as well as 10 grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren, both in Winnipeg and Chile. Ramon began working at the Lota coalmines in southern Chile at a very young age. Later, he moved to Santiago City where, after holding a variety of jobs, he started his own business as a butcher which he successfully worked at until he immigrated to Canada in 1979. He then worked at Mall Foods and Dominion Lumber in Winnipeg until his retirement in 1985. He was a very special person - throughout his life he gave love and friendship to all. He was very much loved and will be dearly missed by all those who knew him.
