Raul served his country, as a paratrooper, in the US Army. He married Nora Garcia on February 11, 1950 and she preceded him in death in February 2009. Family was first and foremost in his life. He was a quiet, humble man of incredible patience and discipline, but could also make you laugh for days, with his arsenal of many jokes. Everyone who met Raul instantly loved and admired him.
He owned Perez Cabinet Shop and was well known for his carpentry and cabinet building skills. He will be greatly missed by his family and so many special friends.
Raul is survived by his six children: Eddy, Olga, Jeannie, Gilbert, Michael and Mark, 12 Grandchildren, several Great-Grandchildren, one sister, Belen Velasquez, other relatives and friends.
Mass of Christian Burial will be held at 2 pm Saturday, October 13, 2018 at St. John Neumann Catholic Church with interment following at Resthaven Memorial Park Cemetery. Online condolences may be offered at www.resthavenfuneralhome.com.
