Rosario Tamayo worked in the denim industry for both Wrangler and Levi-Strauss. She dedicated her life to her family and making sure we were supported in whatever we did and that we never felt anything other than love. She was a social butterfly devoted to her family and friends. She never missed a celebration. Rosario was devout Catholic and was a member of the Corpus Christi Catholic Church. She was passionate about her family. After retirement, she enjoyed long walks in the park with her children and loved dancing to her favorite music. She enjoyed looking after her grandchildren, and She was truly an amazing woman, the kindest and gentlest soul. The warmth and happiness she brought to us cannot be overstated. We love her more than words could possibly say and she will live on in our hearts forever more.
