Ted peacefully passed away on 2/3/2023 in his Citrus Heights home surrounded by his devoted family. He was born in Durango, Mexico, the son of Clemente and Juana Ramirez. He is survived by his loving wife Beatrice Ramirez, two daughters Leonor (Joe) and Margarita (David), son Teodoro Ramirez Jr., eight grandchildren, two great grandchildren, three sisters and one brother. Ted immigrated to the United States in 1967 in pursuit of a better life. He worked at a Lumber Mill in Foresthill from 1968-1978. He was the owner of Durango’s Mexican Restaurant (1978 – 2020) with locations in Sacramento, North Sacramento and Placerville.  He had fond memories of the many friends and patrons that he served over his 42 years as the business owner.

Ted’s family was the center of his attention, as he relished his time with them. He was a musician at heart, as he loved singing and playing his guitar along with listening to his favorite music. In addition, Ted loved playing golf, working on his classic cars and trucks and he took incredible pride in the upkeep of his home. It goes without saying, he was a hardworking man that took every opportunity to build a beautiful life.
