Rafael Lago Obituary
With solemn reverence, we commemorate Rafael Lago (Kearny, New Jersey), whose life came to an end on April 17, 2025 at the age of 98, leaving behind cherished memories. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Rafael farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Rafael is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
He is survived by: his wife Umbelina; his daughter Maritza; his son-in-law Edward; his son Alex; and his grandchildren, Kailee and Nicholas.
