Rosie P. "Rose" Morin

Born in Rosebud, Texas, Rosie was the beloved daughter of Jacinto and Juanita Prado, who preceded her in death. As a young wife, Rosie spent part of her life in California alongside her husband, Raul Morin, while he proudly served in the United States Marine Corps. Following his military service, they returned to Texas, and San Antonio became the place Rosie would call home for most of her life.

A hardworking woman from a young age, Rosie held several jobs throughout her early years, including working at Fine Silver in San Antonio. She later found her professional home with Edgewood Independent School District, where she dedicated many years of service before retiring as a Cafeteria Manager.

Rosie shared her life with her beloved husband, Raul Morin, who preceded her in death. Together, they raised four children and built a family whose love, memories, and traditions would continue to grow for generations.

She was the proud mother to Mary Jane (Louis) who together have three children and many grandchildren; Raul Morin Jr., who preceded his mother in death and leaves behind four children and numerous grandchildren; Jo Ann, mother of four children, and grandmother to one; and Cindy (Bill), Cindy has three children and multiple grandchildren. Rosie’s grandchild, Rudy, precedes her in death and she had twin great grandchildren who preceded her in death, Nathan and Natalie. Rosie was also a mother to her pups, Lola who passed 8 years ago and Mollie, her Havanese whom she adored and spent a majority of her time with.

Rosie shared a special bond with her sisters, Bea and Grace, and her brother, Raul who precedes her in death, as well as her many nieces and nephews.

Family was at the heart of Rosie’s life, and many of the most treasured memories of her were made gathered around her table. She loved to cook, especially making tamales at Christmas and hosting Thanksgiving dinner for her family. To those fortunate enough to have eaten them, there was simply no question—**Rosie made the best enchiladas around and made the best biscuits for Jake. **

Rosie loved music and she loved to dance, especially with her sisters, Bea and Grace. The music, laughter, dancing, family gatherings, and meals shared together were some of life’s simple joys that meant so much to her. They are also the memories her family will continue to hold close to their hearts. She loved getting dressed up, getting her hair and nails done and loved anything red, especially her lipstick.

Rosie’s 89 years created a legacy that reaches far beyond a single lifetime. It lives on through her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and all those whose lives she touched. Her recipes will be recreated, her traditions will be carried forward, the music she loved will continue to be played, and stories of Grandma Rose will continue to be told around family tables for generations to come.

Though her presence will be deeply missed, the love she gave and the family she built will remain. She will be remembered as a hardworking woman, a devoted wife and mother, a beloved grandmother and great-grandmother, a sister, an aunt, and the heart of a family she loved dearly.

She will be greatly missed and forever loved.

The family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Devoted Care Hospice for the compassionate care and dedication shown to Rosie, with special thanks to her nurse, Kristyn, and her aide, Brenda, for the kindness, comfort, and care they provided during her final days. The family would also like to recognize Yuvia, Rosie’s aide with Ariel Hospice, for the compassionate care and kindness she provided to Rosie during her time with them.

A Rosary will be held on Wednesday, October 14, 2026, at 7:00 p.m. at Porter Loring Mortuary North.

The Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Thursday, October 15, 2026, at 9:30 a.m. at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Little Flower in San Antonio.

Flowers may be sent to **Porter Loring Mortuary North in her name. **

May the music continue, may the family traditions live on, and may every Christmas tamale, Thanksgiving gathering, and plate of enchiladas remind us of the woman who brought so much love to the table.
