Alonzo Mario Rosalez was born on December 6, 1975, in Sheridan, Wyoming to Antonio and Zill Rosalez. He grew up and went to school in Sheridan and graduated from Sheridan High School with the class of 1994. He was offered a full-ride soccer scholarship to Chadron State College, where he attended for a short time. After his college, he returned home to Sheridan and worked for NIS until moving to Buffalo in 2000. He was married on March 12, 2004, in Buffalo to Tina Rodriguez, and they made their home in Buffalo, where he worked for various construction and oilfield companies. He and Tina were divorced in October 2023 and Alonzo continued living in Buffalo until his death.

Alonzo always had a smile.  He was the light in every crowd. He was a hard worker, a quick learner and very passionate.  He was his children’s biggest fan, and he had the biggest heart and was overall a kind and warm-hearted person.  He loved fly-fishing, riding his dirt bike, coaching and attending sporting events, but his passion was spending time with his family. He is survived by one daughter Cantrell Rosalez and one son Johnathan Rosalez both of Buffalo. He is preceded in death by his parents and one brother, Joshua Rosalez.
