In Memory of,
Virginia Colon
Her Story

She was born in the town of Humacao on April 9, 1931. Her parents are Zenón Colón and Nicolasa Torres. Her four siblings are: Candido, Milla, Chu, and Tomasa. Her only daughter is Yolanda Vega Colon. Her four grandchildren are Virgen, Wilson, Wilmari, and Johely. Her eight great-grandchildren are Virelly, Sammy, Kevin, Sebastian, D’Angoli, Briana, Buba, and Wariely. Her three great-great-grandchildren are Alexander, Ivelisse, and Jonathan.

Virginia fell in love with Longino Vega, with whom she had Yolanda, affectionately known as Yoly.

She ended her relationship with the father of her daughter. She sadly had to leave her daughter in the care of her mother, better known as Cola, while Virginia went to work cleaning houses in a town in Puerto Rico called San Juan. Those were difficult days for her as a single mother, but her daughter remained her priority. Every weekend she visited her daughter in La Teja, Humacao. Virginia was a help in supporting her family. As time passed, she found love again with Pedro Cruz, better known as Peyo. Peyo worked at a bar and restaurant in Humacao. And by a twist of fate, the restaurant owner, who greatly appreciated Peyo, sold him the business. 

Later, Peyo and Virginia married and began building their life together. They both started working at the restaurant, and a room in the back of the business became their first love nest. Over the years, they achieved financial stability, which helped them support their family. They acquired property such as cars and houses. They were also recognized within the town’s economic system, holding a place as one of the wealthiest families in Humacao. They moved to the El Recreo Urbanization in Humacao, taking their daughter Yolanda to live with them, where their first granddaughter, Virgen, was born. In the early years, they helped their daughter care for her granddaughter.

Later, their daughter began working and becoming independent, bought her own house, and moved in with Virgen. Several years later, Virginia and Peyo divorced. Virginia bought her own house, which she called La Loma, in Junquito, Humacao. There she met her last partner, Julio, with whom she was for several years. Yoly decided to move to the United States with her husband, Elias. Years later, Virginia also came to live in the United States with Yolanda and her family. Like everyone going through difficult health situations, she could not live alone and was admitted to be cared for at Sub-Acute Health, 59 Birch St Paterson NJ where she lived for several years, and there came the day of her sad goodbye.

At the request of the family, cremation is private. Inurnment was private in Greenmount Cemetery, Philadelphia, PA.
