Awilda Torres

May 20, 1954 — March 3, 2023

Bridgeport

Awilda Torres, 68, returned to the loving arms of the Lord on March 3, 2023, in her Bridgeport residence.  She was born in Bridgeport, CT to Enrique Morales and Maria Saez.  She is the beloved widow of the late Jose Torres.  

Awilda was a dedicated billing administrator for a number of years and was very detailed oriented.  She was a champion of animals and loved them all.  She enjoyed dancing and shopping.  She was a very loyal person especially to her family and friends.  She enjoyed memorable moments with her "Golden Girls" (her sisters) sitting on the porch eating Lay's chips with a cold beer.  Her loving and generous ways allowed her to open her heart and home to foster many children.  Of all her greatest accomplishments her favorite was being a mom.  

Awilda leaves behind to honor her memory her loving children Francisco Matos III, Elizabeth Matos (Eluriah Barfield), Luz A. Torres (Mario Rivera), Charlene M. Torres, Victoria M. Torres and Justin Torres, her precious 11 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren and her devoted siblings Ruth V. Gomez, Luis E. Morales, Edgar Morales, Nilsa Morales, Marilyn Rodriguez, and Edith Santos and a host of friends and relatives that will miss her dearly.  She was also pre-deceased by her brothers Angel and Jack Morales.

 Calling hours will be held on Sunday, March 12, 2023, from 4:00 PM- 7:00 PM and again on Monday, March 13 from 11:00 AM -12:00 PM at Funeraria Luz de Paz, 426 East Washington Avenue, Bridgeport, CT.  Interment will follow immediately after on Monday at Lakeview Cemetery, 885 Boston Avenue, Bridgeport, CT.
