Many people knew Ron as “Big C” and he was known for his vibrant taste in music, his love of golf and the beach. Ron could always be found in the kitchen or behind the grill entertaining his friends and family. His laugh was contagious and could be heard across town. Ron was known for his compassion for others, for any hand that needed assistance and took great pride in his family and friends and especially loved being “Grampy”.

Ron is survived by his loving and supportive spouse Traci Martinez and their dog Gypsi.

His legacy is left with two sons, Ronald S. Carter and Sheldon W. Carter; one daughter, Jessica R. Carter; three grandchildren, Jacob Carter, Genevieve Castrejon, baby Sheldon Carter and soon to be arriving baby Ronnie Jr.

He also leaves behind bonus children P.J. Martinez, Alexis Martinez and Joshua Martinez, along with a bonus grandchild Alexander.

Ron said goodbye to his mother Ofelia Carter; three brothers, Tom, Randy and Vincent Carter, sister Debbie (Carter) Cruz and his godson Devon Solorio.

 He was preceded in death by his daughter Kaitlin Carter and father Thomas. 

Ron “Big C” is very much loved and will be greatly missed by those whose life he touched.
