Obituary of Ricardo Perez
Ricardo Chi-Chi Perez of Union City, NJ passed away on Monday, May 24, 2021, at the age of 68. After several months of declining health, Ricardo died peacefully with his beloved wife Leticia Pellot and dog Bella by his side.
Visitation will be offered Thursday, June 3, 2021 from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM
Ricardo was born in Havana, Cuba on June 9, 1952, to father Daniel E. Perez and mother Celia Fonseca. The youngest of siblings, Ricardo did not have the opportunity for much formal education. He helped his family with any odd jobs he could find starting at an early age. His work ethic and desire to take care of his family led to him migrate from Cuba to the United States in the 1980’s.
Never forgetting his roots Ricardo would not only support his new family in the US but also the ones left behind in Cuba. Ricardo was known to have the biggest heart and would go out of his way to assure his family was well taken care of. If you asked Ricardo, his greatest accomplishments wasn’t being successful, it was being a father. He loved nothing more than his kids, and grandchildren.
Ricardo was preceded in death by his parents and by his sisters Catalina and Luisa Perez. He is survived by his wife Leticia Pellot; children Yilen Perez, Noemi Perez, Richard Perez, Ricardito Perez, Ricardo Perez Jr and Cristian Perez; grandchildren Mia Altamirano, Daniel Perez, Camila Perez, America Perez, Cristian Perez, Brayan Perez, Elio Perez, Lorena Perez, Anyeli Perez, Anyelo Perez, Ricardito Perez, Adoni Perez.
