Iraida Guzman, 93, of Ocoee, Florida, passed away peacefully on November 1, 2026, just four days shy of her birthday, November 5, 1932. Iraida was born in Puerto Rico, but her family moved to the U.S.A., and they settled in The Bronx, NY when she was a young girl. She went to high school, attended some college and later became a bank teller before getting married. She was the beloved wife of Jose Guzman. Together they started a family. They were parents of two daughters: Maria Rochet and Annette (David) Lopez, and grandparents of two grandsons: Shaun (Tessa) Rochet and Justin (Liz) Rochet. Once daughters were independent adults, they moved to Florida to join the rest of their family. They shared 68 wonderful years of marriage together until the passing of Jose. During this time, they shared many cruises with family and friends as it was their favorite past time together. Iraida continued her commitment to family, as she imparted her love, values, and wisdom to them, leaving a legacy that will continue to live on through her family.

Iraida will be deeply missed, but her spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew her. She leaves behind lasting memories, a loving family, and an indelible mark on the lives she touched.

Family and friends are invited to gather to remember and celebrate her extraordinary life.
