Ramon Sarmiento
Ramon Albert "Ray" Sarmiento, beloved husband, father, stepfather, grandfather and friend, passed away January 11, 2015. He was born May 21, 1929 in Brooklyn, New York to Harold and Gladys Mae Munson Sarmiento who predeceased him.
He is survived by his wife, Ann; son, Scott Sarmiento and granddaughter, Jessica Sterling, both of Syracuse, New York; stepdaughter, Sherry Brantley (Gerald) of Austin, Texas; sister, Dorothy Wicksman of New London, New Hampshire; brother-in-law, Tommy Smith (Carol) of Bartonville, Texas; and several nieces and nephews. He was a kind, upbeat man who deeply loved his wife, son and granddaughter.
Following attendance in the public schools in New York City, he graduated from Queens College in Queens, New York, where he developed an abiding interest in U.S. history. He spent two years in the armed forces in the European theatre.
His professional life was spent in the heating and air conditioning industry in many capacities, retiring from Carrier Corporation in 1991 as Sales Manager in field sales.
In retirement, his service impacted his community for 20 years plus as a leader in all his chosen activities, from working in public gardens as a Pulaski County Master Gardener to acting as President of Sherwood Rotary and NLR Baptist Hospital Auxiliary for one year each, to raising funds for the Baptist Health System by acting as co-chairman of the golf committee of the NLR auxiliary for many years.
Ray was baptized in 1988 and was a faithful, hard-working Christian at Windsong Church of Christ in Maumelle (formerly 6th and Izard, Little Rock).
Services will be held Thursday, January 15 at 11:00 a.m. at Windsong Church of Christ, officiated by Mr. Keith Harris, followed by interment at Edgewood Memorial Park in North Little Rock. Visitation will precede the service beginning at 10:00 a.m. at the church.
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to Sherwood Rotary or Windsong Church of Christ.
Arrangements by Little Rock Funeral Home, 8801 Knoedl Ct., (501)224-2200. Ray's online guestbook may be signed at www.littlerockfuneralhome.com.
