She was born on April 8, 1943, in Arecibo, Puerto Rico to parents Valentina Rosas Olmo and Jose Perez Rodriguez. Magdalena was a strong woman who dedicated her life to her four children. Her greatest joy was her family and she made it her mission to make sure that she kept the family united. Magdalena loved to sew and you could always find her working on her latest project. She was a very easy going, kind, and generous person, and everyone that knew her loved her. Magdalena was preceded in death by her parents Valentina and Jose, her late brother Hector Perez, and her late husband Francisco Ocasio Cortez. Magdalena is lovingly remembered by her siblings Carlos Perez and Carmen Jimenez and her four children Iris Ocasio, Nilda Ocasio, Francisco Ocasio, and Eduamel Ocasio.

The family would like to give special thanks to family members Nilda Ocasio, Jasmin Gamboa, Charlene Ocasio, and Carlos Rodríguez for caring for her during her time of need.
