José R. Rosario-Muñoz was born in San Lorenzo Puerto Rico on January 23rd, 1940. He was the third and middle child of Emiliano Rosario and Anicasia Muñoz. As a young man he moved to New York and it was there where he met his future bride Magali Llantin-Moreno. Ramón and Magie married in 1961 and have been together ever since. Together they had three daughters, Jeannette, Judith, and Jo-Ann. José and Magali returned to Puerto Rico where they raised their children. In 2007, they moved to Melbourne, Florida to be near their daughters and grandchildren Bryan and Joshua Flores-Rosario.

José Ramón was a hard worker, humble man, always devoted to his family. A quiet guy, a great friend, and always ready to lend a hand to those in need. José loved to be surrounded by nature, visit the outdoors, go to the beach or a walk in the woods, and listen to the sounds of birds.. He loved to sing, dance, paint, and create beautiful wood crafts. He was an artisan in Old San Juan, he was a postal worker at the Empire State Building, he worked for Kodak in NY.

He leaves behind a legacy of love and kindness. We will miss him dearly.
