Uncle you will be missed. We shall have rum again and share laughs and stories. Much love to you always. Until we meet again 💕

You always made everyone smile uncle you will be missed. I remember meeting you for the first time in New York. I was probably 3 or 4 years old and was wearing a hat. You looked at me and told me that’s how you lost your hair was by wearing a hat. Years later I think of that and still laugh. 

Here we are at Playa de Ponce. Julio needed. two hands Lol

Every year Judy and I would go to Puerto Rico to see you and Julio and spend some Quilty time with my stepmoms and pops. Julio was like a father to me. Big brother and close friend was in there as well.
I remember while fixing his house I am asking him for a hammer and he said what's that, we both broke out laughing (:  He was funny, as well as a good man. I loved him so much he will be missed. Love you

My sincere condolences to my sister-in-law Ana Tirsa, my nephews, and my sister Ana Irma, family in such a painful moment that they are going through with the passing away of our brother Julio. We are united by the grief of his departure and I remain at your order always. 

May the good times and pleasant memories you had with Julio be a balm for this moment of pain.

Your sister Maribel Cruz and Family. 

Tio Julio,

The one core memory I’ll always carry with me is when I went down to visit you and Titi Anna down in PR with my cousin Ariel. We were fairly young at the time, but I remember you giving us really good advice on how to go about life and I took that with me forever and applied it to everything that I did because it really touched me. You were always so silly, so positive, and it was never a dull moment with you. I know you’ll be watching over all of us from the heavens above. May you rest in peace ❤️ 

Forever in our hearts.. 🕯️🕊️

Thank you Uncle Julio for all the laughs. You made my Puerto Rico visits always a blast. I know your dancing while watching over all of us. Your are missed Uncle!

My brother- in-law Julio Cruz Tosado was like a brother to me.  He was always bothering me when I was 12,  making me cry and of course my sister Anna used to tell him to stop Lol.  I then learned to laugh instead of cry.   He was the first person to teach me how to drive at the age of 15.  If it wasn't for him I would have never learned to drive or be so independent.  He always treated us well.  My parents loved him a lot.  He was part of our family number 7.    He will be missed as the kindest person I knew.   I will miss his salsa dancing on the aisles of K-mart and Walmart.  I know you are in heaven my brother no doubt about it.  You will be missed.  

Even when he could not get up to dance it did not stop my dad from moving especially to Elvis!! 💕💕 Love you Dad and will miss you always🤗🤗💕

My Dad”s favorite pass time was dancing…💕🙏🤗

One of the last days with my Dad.  

Dad - I want to say Thank You for all of the years you gave me of your life.  From the first day I was born until the last day I held your hand.  I can reflect back on memories throughout my life  with you.  Times from riding around with you while you drove your cab in Queens New York and when you worked at the Pizza place flipping and twirling the dough in the air to make that next pizza.  So many memories that will always be with me.   

Dad what I want to let you know is that I loved  you with all my heart!  Thru the good times and the bad times.  I worshipped the ground you walked on and listened to all of the advice you gave me each time I saw you.   Dad as a kid I saw you as my Super Hero!  I always felt protected and loved.  I knew no matter what I was up against I always had you in my corner as my back up or if not leading the charge.  You always told me to stay positive and focused and I will get the things that I want in life and I will always remember that.  I sit here and type away while letting out my emotions knowing you’re gone!  The days now are a little harder because I always thought you would be there but life does have and end and your turn came.  God needed you for another reason.   

I love you Dad!!


My Grandpa was always the light in every room. His laugh was highly contagious and he was always joking around. He carried a rag and a flashlight with him wherever he went. He will never truly be gone because I see a piece of him in each of my family members every day. He was my favorite person. 

I love you forever Grandpa. I know that this is not goodbye but simply see you later. 

This was my only grandfather, and I created a lot of good memories with him, he would always say something random to make me and my siblings laugh, I know he’ll never be forgotten. I love and miss you so so much grandpa, you will always mean the world to me. 

Uncle Julio best memory I have with is on Father’s Day we went out for drive just and me and Ian to the beach had a drink talk about life about love and about best goal we can ever reach we walk for hours had awesome food that day with the family laugh talked about good memories in California I remember you never could stop
Smiling your spirits are always in my heart love
You uncle may you rest in peace with god for we will meet again I know you can’t wait to hear all our story’s 

Love Ernesto

I still remember the good times I had with Grand-Dad Julio to this very day. I enjoyed the Puerto Rico trips to visit him, loved the coffee we shared together, and I was more than happy to help them out with any doctor trips or even dining at McDonald's together. I also loved the jokes he shared with me as well as his fashion style. That's why I love wearing the type of hats I wear: Grand-Dad made them look awesome and humble. May you always be remembered my your wife/Grandma Ana, my dad, my family, and everyone else's hearts you've touched throughout the years. Take care in the next life!

With Love,
Your Grandson J.C.
