"My Angel"
This goes out to my beloved aunt
The one who I ran to, the one who I've sought
You watched me grow up literally day-by-day
And as your first niece, you spoiled me in every way
Twenty-two years together, twenty-two years of infinite memories
You taught me to be strong and never let those get the best of me
So beautiful your smile, your eyes hid with every one
You gave the juiciest kisses and the tightest hugs
We'll miss your spontaneous moments, had the heart of a kid
Always made me see the light of the life you lived
I said "I'll see you later, it's never a good-bye"
And I kissed your forehead - you nodded and then I cried
The Lord needed an Angel - but we didn't want you to leave
You did your deed on earth, now you can watch down on me
Love Always Your Niece, Amanda
Silvia Monroig “Chyrin” age 39 of Wayne on Tuesday, November 18, 2008 at the Compassionate Care Hospice in Dover. Her passing was quiet and peaceful after a courageous battle with lung cancer. Her loving family were gathered at her bedside.
She was born in Isabela, Puerto Rico and came here as an infant with her family settling in Plainfield later moving to Newark where she lived most of her life before moving to Wayne in April of this year.
Silvia was employed at Ruitenberg Display Company suppliers and creators of retail display equipment and decorating in Haledon.
She was gifted with an extraverted gregarious personality that exuded a wonderful sense of humor.
Silvia leaves her family with many fond memories of a loving daughter, sister, aunt and friend.
She had a wonderful innate artistic talent which she applied to her work as a retail store display decorator. Silvia loved flowers and decorated Christmas trees that especially stood out for everyone to admire.
Surviving are her parents Jaime and Virginia Monroig of Newark; her loving partner Paul Pisciottano of Wayne; one brother Jaime Monroig Jr. and his wife Milna of Newark, three sisters Evelyn Caruso and her husband Rick of Rockaway, Wilda Monroig and her significant other Jeff of Belleville and Virginia Varela of Jersey City; nieces and nephew including Amanda Monroig of Newark, Lori Caruso of Rockaway, a very special baby Jenna Fink who was born on August 8th, 2007 one week before Sylvia was diagnosed with cancer and Jayson Monroig of Newark. Aunt Silvia felt especially close to baby Jenna as she felt the deep threat to her life with her illness. Perhaps on her mind was the often expressed phrase that one comes into the world and one goes out of the world and such is the course of life.
