Leonardo Ureña - December 24, 1926 - March 27, 2024

Departed: 03/27/2024 (New York)

Obituary Preview: Leonardo Ureña (24 de diciembre 1926 - 27 de marzo 2024)

Leonardo Ureña, un amoroso padre y esposo, de Santiago, República Dominicana, hizo su transición de esta vida a los 97 años de edad el miércoles 27 de marzo del 2024 en el Hospital Calvary, Bronx, NY. Nació mellizo en Santiago de los Caballeros, República Dominicana en 1926, hijo de José Eugenio Ureña y Matilde Díaz, pero fue criado por su tía Juana Mercedes Ureña y su tío José Israel Peña ("Papó"). El oficio elegido por Leonardo fue como un hábil sastre y costurero. Él era un hombre de fe indiscutible, bien fundado en el agradecimiento. Tenía un entendimiento fundamental de que la vida es efímera, y por eso él la vivía con una actitud positiva y optimista, siempre eligiendo ver la bondad y la abundancia a su alrededor. Leonardo era una persona sumamente cariñosa, amorosa, generosa y alegre. Disfrutaba de los placeres sencillos de la vida, como largos paseos y llamar o visitar a familiares y amistades. Era muy familiar y disfrutaba de llamar y compartir con sus seres queridos, pero incluso un extraño podía sentirse rápidamente como un amigo en la presencia de Leonardo. A Leonardo le gustaba hacer trabajo voluntario en un

hogar de ancianos en Harlem donde cantaba a los residentes de edad avanzada y compartía la palabra de Dios. Le encantaba tocar la guitarra, escuchar música y ver los juegos de béisbol (o pelota) de los New York Yankees y Las Águilas. Encontraba humor y ligereza en cualquier situación y nunca se quedaba sin historias o chistes. Siempre era la alegría de la huerta, sonriendo ampliamente y trayendo luz a todo lugar. Lamentablemente, en enero de 2024, Leonardo recibió el difícil diagnóstico de cáncer de pulmón avanzado, y poco tiempo después, hizo su camino al cielo. A lo largo de su trayecto, aceptó la realidad de su enfermedad con gracia extraordinaria, reconociendo que Dios estaba en control en todo momento. Se sintió bendecido con los años de vida que Dios le regaló y

tomó cada momento de su enfermedad con una fuerza firme y una aceptación del curso natural de la vida.

A Leonardo le sobrevive su esposa Patricia Miledys, sus seis hijos Leonardo, Bienvenido, Pedro, Luis, José, David, sus tres hijas Adria Esther, Marilyn y Patricia Shaira, su hermano José Miguel, y sus muchos nietos/as, bisnietos/as, y sobrinos/as. Se une con muchos queridos miembros de su familia en el cielo, incluyendo a su querida hermana melliza Altagracia y muchos de sus otros hermanos/as, así como su hijo Ignacio.

Leonardo fue profundamente amado por muchos familiares, amistades y miembros de la comunidad. Su vida fue un testamento del poder de la positividad y agradecimiento, y su legado vivirá para siempre en los corazones de aquellos que tuvieron la suerte de conocerlo. Tuvo un gran impacto sobre todas nuestras vidas y lo extrañaremos muchísimo. Siempre tendremos un vacío en nuestros corazones, pero sabemos que su espíritu siempre estará con nosotros.

La velacion es el domingo 7 de abril de 2024 (10AM - 2PM) en International Funeral Services New York II (1761 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10031). El entierro es el lunes 8 de abril de 2024 (11AM) en el Cementerio de St. Mary’s en Yonkers, NY.

Para asegurar la entrega, por favor avísale al florista la fecha y la hora del servicio conmemorativo. Favor de mandar envíos a: International Funeral Services New York II - 1761 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10031. ● Daniela's Flower Shop # (646) 678-3150 - https://www.danielasflowershop.com/ ● Merry Florist # (212) 927-1224 - https://www.merryflowersnyc.net/?src=FSN Salmo 121

1 Alzaré mis a ojos a los montes. ¿De dónde vendrá mi socorro? 2 Mi a socorro viene de Jehová,

que hizo los cielos y la tierra. 3 No dejará que resbale tu pie;

no se adormecerá a el que te guarda. 4 He aquí, no se adormecerá ni dormirá

el que guarda a Israel. 5 Jehová es tu a guardador;

Jehová es tu b sombra a tu mano derecha. 6 El a sol no te herirá de día,

ni la luna de noche. 7 Jehová te a guardará de todo mal;

él guardará tu alma. 8 Jehová guardará tu salida y tu entrada

desde ahora y para siempre. Leonardo Ureña (December 24, 1926 - March 27, 2024) Leonardo Ureña, a loving father and husband, of Santiago, Dominican Republic, transitioned from this life at the age of 97 on Wednesday, March 27, 2024 at Calvary Hospital, Bronx, NY. He was born a twin in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic in 1926 to Jose Eugenio Ureña and Matilde Diaz, but he was raised by his aunt Juana Mercedes Ureña and his uncle

José Israel Peña (“Papó”).

Leonardo’s chosen trade was as a skillful tailor and seamster. He was an undeniable man of faith grounded in gratitude. He had a fundamental understanding that life is fleeting so he approached it with a positive, uplifting attitude and a bright smile, always choosing to see the goodness and abundance around him. Leonardo was an extremely caring, loving, giving, and joyful person. He enjoyed the simple pleasures in life, like long walks and calling or visiting family and friends. He was very family-oriented and thoroughly enjoyed relaxed quality time with his loved ones, but even a stranger could quickly feel like a friend in Leonardo’s presence. Leonardo enjoyed volunteering at a nursing home in Harlem where he would sing to the elderly residents and spread the word of God. He loved to play the guitar, listen to music, and watch the New York Yankees and Las Aguilas baseball games. He found humor and levity in any situation and never ran out of funny stories or jokes to tell. He was always the life of the party,

smiling widely, brightly, and bringing sunshine to everyone in the room.

Sadly, in January of 2024, Leonardo received the challenging diagnosis of advanced lung cancer, and just a few months later, he made his way to heaven. Throughout his journey, he embraced the reality of his illness with remarkable grace,  acknowledging that God was in control in all moments. He felt blessed with the years of life that God gifted him and approached each moment of his illness with unwavering strength and acceptance of life's natural course. Leonardo is survived by his wife Patricia Miledys, his six sons Leonardo, Bienvenido, Pedro, Luis, José, David, his three daughters Adria Esther, Marilyn, and Patricia Shaira, his brother José Miguel, and his many grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, and nephews. He joins many beloved family members up in heaven, including his dear twin sister Altagracia and many

of his other siblings as well as his son Ignacio.

Leonardo was deeply loved by so many family, friends, and community members. His life was a testament to the power of positivity and gratitude, and his legacy will forever live on in the hearts of those who were fortunate enough to know him. He left an indelible mark on all of our lives and we will miss him dearly. We will forever have a hole in our hearts but we know his spirit is always with us.

The Viewing is on Sunday, April 7, 2024 (10AM - 2PM) at International Funeral Services New York II (1761 Amsterdam Ave, New York, NY 10031), and the burial is on Monday, April 8, 2024 (11AM) at St. Mary’s Cemetery in Yonkers, NY.
