In loving memory of Enrique M Colon, a cherished son, brother, and friend, whose presence graced this world with warmth, kindness, and unwavering love. Enrique's journey on this earth came to a peaceful end on April 2, 2024, at his residence in Bridgeport, leaving behind a legacy of compassion and joy that will forever be cherished by those fortunate enough to have known him. He entered this world on November 17, 1991, in the very city he called home, a place that bore witness to the beautiful tapestry of his life.
Enrique's radiant smile and genuine kindness touched the hearts of all who had the privilege of crossing his path. His unwavering love for his family and friends was a guiding light, illuminating the lives of those around him. Whether through a comforting embrace, a listening ear, or a heartfelt laugh, Enrique had a remarkable ability to uplift and inspire those in his presence. His gentle spirit was a beacon of hope in times of darkness and a source of joy in moments of sorrow.
Left to mourn his passing is his loving father, Jose U. Cotto, whose bond with Enrique transcended words, filled with shared memories and unspoken understanding. His siblings, Luis Joel Colon, Yolanda Colon, and Julissa Cartagena, hold dear the countless moments of laughter, love, and shared experiences that enriched their lives. Enrique's mother, Aida I. Colon, was not only his parent but also his confidante and guide, instilling in him values of compassion, integrity, and resilience. His aunt, Ruth E. Colon, shares in the profound grief of losing a beloved nephew, her heart heavy with sorrow.
The memory of Enrique's vibrant spirit will be honored during a memorial service on April 14, 2024, at Funeraria Luz De Paz in Bridgeport. This gathering will serve as a testament to the impact Enrique had on the lives of those around him, providing an opportunity for family and friends to come together, to celebrate his life, and to find solace in the embrace of community. It will be a time to share cherished memories, to reflect on the beauty of his soul, and to find comfort in the bonds of love that unite us all.
Though Enrique may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the memories we hold dear. His legacy of love, kindness, and compassion will continue to inspire us, guiding us through life's journey with grace and resilience. While his physical presence may be gone, his essence remains imprinted on our hearts, a beacon of light that will forever shine bright.
Rest in peace, dear Enrique M Colon. Your love will continue to echo through the lives of all who knew you, a timeless reminder of the beauty of your soul and the depth of your spirit.
