Rosa was born on April 1, 1939 in San Lorenzo, Puerto Rico, and was raised in New York City. On July 11, 1959, she married the love of her life, Jose Acevedo. Together they shared 66 wonderful years of marriage and built a life filled with family, love, and cherished traditions.
Rosa worked as a bank teller at Midatlantic Bank in Bergen County, New Jersey where she was known for her warmth, kindness, and dedication to her customers and colleagues. She was also an active member of her community, serving proudly as Past President of the Saddle Brook Women's Club.
