Rosamaria
Sosa
Mar 29, 1951 — Sep 26, 2026
With hearts full of immense gratitude and sorrow, we announce the passing of our adored mother, sister, aunt, Nina, Nana, cousin, and dearest friend, Rosamaria Sosa. Heaven just got a little bit brighter as she has joined our angelic family amongst the stars. To know her was to know that she was defined by her resolute trust in her unshakeable faith. She planted these seeds in everything she said and did and with anyone who had the pleasure of sitting with her while knitting a beautiful new project or tasting her comforting home cooking. Spending time with friends and family was always meaningful for her as she cherished making memories of laughter, song, and especially dancing. Her kind and loving spirit transmitted peace, while her warm smile radiated any room she entered.
Rosamaria is survived by her devoted children, Rodolfo C., Sandra (husband, Marco), Diana (husband Javi), her dear siblings, brother Juan Saldaña, (wife, Nora) and sister, Maria (Marilu) Fuentes (late husband, David), and her loving nieces and nephews, as well as extended family members who brought immense joy to her life. She was preceded in death by her husband Rodolfo T. Sosa, her siblings José Saldaña, Enrique Saldaña (husband of late wife, Janet), and Carlos Saldaña (husband of late wife, Elvia).
