Awilda Semprit

Awilda Semprit, a remarkable woman of strength and beauty, was born on May 6, 1953, in Santurce, Puerto Rico. A beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, Awilda's vibrant spirit touched the lives of all who knew her. Her life was a living testament to the words of Maya Angelou, "I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."

Awilda was a woman of boundless love and generosity. She was the pillar of her family, selflessly dedicating her life to nurturing and caring for her loved ones. Her home in Springfield, Massachusetts, was a haven of warmth and affection, filled with the aroma of her delicious cooking and the sound of her infectious laughter. Her life was rich with meaningful relationships, and she cherished every moment spent with her family and friends. As Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, "The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." Awilda lived this truth, making a significant impact on the lives of those she loved.

Awilda is survived by her beloved children, Misamaris Semprit, Israel Ortiz, and Ramon Cruz; and her cherished grandchildren, Elisamuel Ramirez, Isaac Semprit, Bianca Ramirez, Samantha Ramirez, Jose A Ortiz, and Joshua Ortiz. She also leaves behind her dear siblings, Wilfredo Semprit, Maria Semprit, Ramon Semprit, Minerva Ramirez, MixSonia Adorno. She also had many neices and nephews. Preceding her in death were her parents, William Semprit and Carmen Diaz.
