Obituary

It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Dolores Depena, born in the year 1976. A spirited, outgoing, and humorous woman, Dolores displayed her strength and intelligence in every facet of her life. Her vivacious personality was magnetic, drawing people towards her with her charm and ready wit.

Among her most profound accomplishments was raising three children as a singular parent, demonstrating her unyielding tenacity and boundless love. She will be dearly remembered by her children J’roux West, Lisbeth Figaro-Depena, Amyia Pena-Depena and a very close family friend Damitrya Johnson Gomes who is a testament to her dedication and hard work.

Away from the immediate family, Dolores was admired for her wisdom and her willingness to give aid even to those who had wronged her. She exemplified the teaching that "two wrongs don't make a right," and believed in showing grace and empathy in challenging situations.

She left behind a powerful legacy: the belief that no obstacle is too great if one truly wishes to achieve a goal. This ethos, instilled in her children and the people she mentored, will continue to inspire all who had the pleasure of knowing her.

Dolores Depena, a beacon of resilience and kindness, has left an indelible mark on us all. Her spirit will continue to guide those who loved her, and her memory will forever be treasured.
