Benjamin Ortiz-Rosado - November 08, 1970 - March 04, 2024

Departed: 03/04/2024 (Jacksonville)

Obituary Preview: “El señor Benjamin Ortiz Rosado nació el 11/08/1970 en Bayamón, Puerto Rico. Sus padres son Arturo Ortiz y Juana Rosado. Asistió a la escuela Jose Padín en Bayamón, donde obtuvo su GED. Conoció al amor de su vida, Aracelis Ayala Cabrera, con quien estuvo casado durante 26 años y tuvieron 5 hijos: Julies Marie, Stephanie Marie, Shannelys Marie, Daril Yoel y Juan Manuel; y de ellos, obtuvieron 2 nietas: Darielys Zoe y Desirae Marie. Le apasionaba su trabajo, que desempeñaba con mucho amor en Flightstar Aircraft Services con el número de empleado #3584. Sirvió durante 10 años en esa compañía con mucho orgullo y pasión. Amaba ver los atardeceres, las puestas de sol, el mar, los aviones y el cielo, pero sobre todo la mecánica, que aprendió de niño con su maestro y padre, Arturo Ortiz, quien también tenía el talento y la habilidad de tocar el piano, una pasión que compartía con su padre. Su sueño siempre fue tener un negocio de comida, el cual pudo hacer realidad el 17 de febrero de 2021 al abrir Mr.&Mrs. Hotdog and More, o como lo conocían sus clientes, el carrito de Tío Maneco, donde unió sus servicios, atención y carisma a una comunidad que hoy lo honra por el legado que dejó. Hoy, su esposa y sus hijos expresan su más sincero agradecimiento a la comunidad de Jacksonville, a sus familias y amigos, por hacer todo esto posible para que hoy pueda descansar en paz. Y les estaremos eternamente agradecidos. Nuestro héroe. El día 6 de marzo de 2024, celebró sus 5 años como sobreviviente de cáncer de colon rectal, una batalla que impactó profundamente su vida debido a la discriminación, el desafío de salud y la insensibilidad de las personas que lo señalaban y criticaban por su condición de salud, a la que estuvo atado durante 5 años. Dándole gracias a Dios porque ya no sufre más, que descansa en un lugar donde no hay vergüenza, inseguridad y, sobre todas las cosas, no hay dolor. Por eso, hoy damos gracias a Dios por llamarlo a su presencia. Hoy nos duele su partida, pero tenemos la certeza de que algún día nos volveremos a ver. Y ahora pasamos a celebrar su vida.”
