Born and raised in Vineland, NJ to the late Zaida (Custodio) Rodriguez and Ramon N. Rodriguez, Sr., Ramon was a resident of the Vineland area for most of his life until moving to New Brunswick. He was a veteran of the US Navy with submarine training. Ramon worked in the food service industry at both the Maplewood III restaurant and Southwoods State Prison in Cumberland County, NJ. More recently he was employed by Wal-Mart and Barnes & Nobles in New Brunswick. Ramon was a loyal, dedicated and hard-working man who was respected by his peers and co-workers. He had a great sense of humor. In his younger years he was very interested in and practiced martial arts. He enjoyed auto body repair and spent lots of time working on cars throughout his life. Another hobby of his was exercising and lifting weights, which he did frequently. Most importantly, he was a loving father who adored his children.
