In Loving Memory of Almida Vega-Reyes
Yonkers, New York – With deep sadness and heartfelt sorrow, we announce the passing of Almida Vega-Reyes, who departed this world on June 13, 2025. A cherished member of the Yonkers community, Almida was a beloved soul whose presence touched the lives of many. Though their physical journey has come to an end, the love, light, and legacy they leave behind will live on in the hearts of all who had the blessing of knowing them.
Almida was the embodiment of warmth, kindness, and quiet strength. Whether through words of encouragement, acts of generosity, or simply the gift of their listening ear, Almida’s presence was a constant source of comfort and joy. They were a beacon of love to their family, a loyal friend, and a guiding spirit to many in the neighborhood.
Family was at the center of everything Almida held dear. They were a devoted parent, sibling, grandchild, cousin, and friend. They nurtured their relationships with patience and sincerity, always putting the needs of others before their own. In times of both celebration and hardship, Almida was a steady hand and a loving heart—never too busy to offer a hug, a meal, or a few words of wisdom that somehow always came at the right time.
Their life in Yonkers was one of community, connection, and compassion. Almida was known for their gentle spirit and enduring faith, qualities that earned them deep respect from those around them. They could often be found participating in neighborhood gatherings, volunteering time to help others, or simply being a reliable friend who never failed to show up when it mattered most.
Though our hearts are heavy, we find comfort in the memories that Almida leaves behind—the laughter shared over family dinners, the thoughtful conversations during late-night calls, the way they made everyone feel seen, valued, and loved. Their legacy is not just in the moments they lived, but in the lives they enriched along the way.
To honor Almida’s life and celebrate their memory, a memorial visitation will be held on Tuesday, June 17, 2025, at Sinatra Funeral Home in Yonkers. Family, friends, and loved ones are invited to attend, reflect, and share their stories of love, gratitude, and remembrance during this difficult time. It will be a moment not only to mourn the loss but to celebrate a life that radiated kindness and inspired so many.
As we gather in remembrance, we carry Almida’s spirit with us—through our stories, through the way we treat others, and through every act of love we share. Though they are no longer here in body, their essence continues to surround us, reminding us that the greatest gift we can offer is the love we pass on to others.
We extend our deepest sympathies to Almida’s family, friends, and all who mourn their loss. May you find peace in the memories, strength in each other, and hope in the legacy that Almida leaves behind.
Rest peacefully, Almida Vega-Reyes.
Forever in our hearts.
