Julio Roldan, 79, passed away Dec. 6, 2018.  Beloved husband of the late Dolores, née Flores; loving father of Miguel (Suzie), Socorro (Reyna), Lillian (Luis), Julio A.

Julio was a longtime resident of Chicago and could often be seen bustling around the city on his scooter, which he proudly rode as his favorite mode of transportation.  He was a huge baseball fanatic and enjoyed watching any team play any time.  Julio's main wardrobe consisted of camouflage and he possessed a various selection of MLB baseball caps.  Always an impeccable gentleman, he took great pride in his appearance and was very mindful of good self-care.  His fastidious daily workout routine included many miles on his treadmill and regardless of politics, he always maintained a strong sense of patriotism.  Julio was passionate about his family and deeply loved.  He will be profoundly missed and never forgotten.
