Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP94986) and 1 other source
In the winter of 2019, a family's life was forever altered when Ramon Antonio Carmona, a 45-year-old male, vanished. He was last known to be living in Phoenix, Arizona, and the final communication his loved ones had with him was on January 30, 2019. After that day, a concerning silence fell, leaving his family to wonder what had become of him. Ramon, a man with previous connections to New York, was known to sometimes use different names, adding a layer of complexity to the search for him. As days turned into weeks and then years, his family's concern grew into a heavy burden of unanswered questions and quiet heartache.

The investigation into Ramon's disappearance was handled by the Phoenix Police Department. Authorities were aware of his past ties to New York, but details about his life in Phoenix remained sparse. His family reported him missing, their worry deepening with each passing day without contact. The circumstances surrounding his disappearance are not publicly detailed, leaving a void of information. It is simply known that he was living in the Phoenix area and then all communication ceased, a sudden and unexplained departure from his family's lives. This lack of a clear timeline or precipitating events makes his case particularly difficult for both his family and the investigators seeking to bring them answers.

Ramon is described as a Hispanic/Latino and White/Caucasian male with black hair and brown eyes. He stood between 5'10' and 5'11' and weighed between 165 and 180 pounds at the time he went missing. Most notably, his body is a canvas of distinctive tattoos. On his left arm, he has the words '100 JIBARO' and roses, while his left wrist is inscribed with the name 'Katelynn.' His upper left arm bears the names 'Flor Maria' and 'Elizabeth.' His right forearm is adorned with a female clown face, a dragon-like image, and a face with sunglasses. The upper right arm has a tattoo of a female in a sombrero, the name 'Katelynn' again, and a skull. Across his chest, the phrases 'Enamorado De Mi Madre Querida' and 'Flor Maria Lopez' are tattooed, along with an unknown face and praying hands. His abdomen features tattoos of female faces, and his back displays the word 'Boriqua' with other unknown faces. These intricate and personal markings serve as crucial identifiers in the ongoing effort to locate him. The overview of this case is one of sudden silence; a man living his life, connected to family, simply stops all communication, leaving behind only memories, questions, and the hope that someone, somewhere, has the information that will bring him home.
