Mrs. Juanita Ramos Crespo, affectionately known as “Juana,” passed away peacefully on Sunday, March 2, 2025, at Riverview Medical Center surrounded by family.
Juanita was born May 7, 1931, to the union of Victoriano Crespo Velazquez and Maria Rivera Quijano in Camuy, Puerto Rico. She was a devoted wife, mother, sister, aunt, grandmother, and friend who was loved by many in the Red Bank community and in Puerto Rico.
Juanita was well known for her hospitality when visiting her home, being greeted with coffee and her amazing food. Most would say she was the “Mama Hen” of her community. Family meant everything to Juanita. Anyone invited into her home felt her loving energy.
Juanita is predeceased by her parents, eleven siblings and two grandchildren.
Juanita is survived by her husband of seventy-five years, Aurelio Ramos Diaz; eight children, Aurelio Jr., Daniel, Judy, Albert (Marie), Eliot (Hope), Raul, Lycet (Martin) and Yesenia; fifteen grandchildren; thirteen great grandchildren and one great-great grandchild as well as a host of nieces and nephews, all of whom brought her immeasurable joy. May her soul rest in eternal peace and may her memory continue to live on in those that loved her dearly.
Rest In Paradise, Tio Juana. Tell everyone I said hello. Bendicion ❤️🕊️🙏
