Remembering and thinking of you Raul. Miss you!! I'm grateful and blessed to have met and worked with you. You were always smiling radiantly and had a positive attitude about everything. You are greatly missed by your UAS colleagues. You were taken from this world too soon!! Thoughts and prayers continue for Raul's family.

Joy. Although I did not know Raul as well as others, he was a very good friend of my brother, Nick Zetlmaier, and my family, the Zetlmaier's. Whenever he would visit, whenever I saw him, he radiated happiness, joy and a positive energy that filled the room. His light burned so bright that it warmed the hearts and souls of all who were fortunate enough to know him.

Although I didn’t know Raul very well, he was a close friend of my brother’s.  What I remember most about him is his smile and happy disposition.  Every time he came over to our family’s home he would bring that, signature smile and positive energy with him.  The Zetlmaier family will, always, remember Raul and miss the light he shared with us.  Our deepest sympathy to his family and friends.

I’m Nick Zetlmaier’s older sister.  Nick, Raul, Tyler, John and Jason are childhood friends, lifelong friends.  I had the privilege of knowing each of these wonderful guys for many years.  Raul would come over to our house often and when he did, you would know by the laughter and banter coming from the kitchen.  Raul and the guys are like brothers to me.  I watched them grow up together through the good times and the not so good times.  I will miss him deeply.

Just want to send my love and condolences, for a great friend and man. Made such an impact when we met freshman year and through out the years of playing football. Going to miss him, love you brother.
