Oscar also known as Chef O or Big O spent his entire life living it to the fullest making barbecue and cooking for the family always smiling at the end of the day, happy to see everyone else happy, often saying “did you see them tearing up the food”.

He was self employed owning a staffing company called Kraft Staffers from 2006-2013 specializing in the construction industry. He worked many years as a Chef in various locations including the St. James Cabaret. He also worked in Construction for Marek Bros. and V.P. of Benito Drywall. Oscar was a man of honor and courage, he was fearless and always doing what came to his mind and often succeeding. Oscar never hesitated to help out anyone in need, if you asked him for his help he went above and beyond his reach to help you. Oscar was a family man always wanting to make barbecues and dinners just to get the family together. Oscar loved his daughters to no end and was the best father to them any man could be. He loved his grandchildren even more and was there for any and every event in their life. Nothing was too big or too small when it came to him being there for his grandchildren. Oscar also took on the role of Father to his stepchildren and Grandfather to Step-grandchildren, always encouraging them to do better and always wanting the best for everyone. He coached Sammy in baseball leading Sammy to the All Stars every year. Oscar also would raise money for the teams to have new equipment and uniforms. Oscar’s finer quality was his want to help raise money for any cause. Oscar often offered his Barbecuing and cooking skills to Help out YoungLife Ministries raise money every year to send kids to Christian Camp. Oscar was the best Husband, Father, Grandfather, Brother, Uncle, Cousin and Friend anyone could ask for. He will be sorely missed every single day.

The Family would like to Thank everyone for all the Love and Support you’ve shown to us during this difficult time.
