Don Germán Ponce passed away peacefully in Riverside, California, on November 6th, 2025, at the age of 100.
Born in Moca, Puerto Rico, in 1925, he lived a long and meaningful life filled with quiet strength, wisdom, and devotion to his family.
In 1953, he married Justa Salas, his beloved wife of 50 years, who passed away in 2003. Together, they raised four children - German Jr., Frederick, William, and Nancy- and built a family rooted in laughter, love, and good times.
Don Germán is survived by his children, ten grandchildren, and many great-grandchildren, all of whom carry forward his gentle spirit and timeless guidance.
A viewing will be held on November 19th in Corona, California, followed by a memorial service in Riverside to celebrate his remarkable life and enduring legacy.
The family wishes to express their heartfelt gratitude for the love and support received during this time.
Arrangements entrusted to the care of Akes Family Funeral Home, Riverside, California.
