Obituary of Yuderka Espinal
Please share a memory of Yuderka to include in a keepsake book for family and friends.
Yuderka (Yubelka) Espinal was a beloved mother, grandmother, sister and friend. She passed to eternal rest on Monday, July 25th at home surrounded by her family. She is preceded in death by her dear mother, Pura Rodriguez, her father Agustin Espinal, and her sister Milagros Luna. She is survived by her four children, Purybelka (Carl) Ahlberg, Cynthia (Evan) Psencik, Andres (Shirley) Martinez, and Andy Martinez, her sister Marisol Santos, brother Leardo Espinal, and numerous other family members and friends. One of her greatest joys was being a grandmother to her six grandchildren, Dylan, Isabella, Valentina, Aubrey, Avery, and Gabriel.
Yubelka will be remembered for the love and joy that she shared with everyone around her, the love that she had for her mother, whom she missed dearly since her passing and is finally reunited with, the love for her children - sus cuatro tesoros as she so lovingly called them - whom she dedicated her life to caring and praying for, and her love for the Lord, under the patronage of His mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, seen through Yubelka’s devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe. No existe nada en el mundo mas grande que el amor de una madre.
Yubelka’s friends and family are invited to celebrate her life on Saturday, July 30th from 3-7 pm at Riverdale Funeral Home, 5044 Broadway, New York, NY 10034. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Monday, August 1st at 10:00 am at Church of the Incarnation, 1290 St. Nicholas Ave. New York, NY 10033. After the funeral Yubelka will be transferred to her final resting place in her native country of the Dominican Republic. In lieu of flowers donations may be made in Yubelka’s name to Church of the Incarnation, Manhattan or St. Jude’s Children's Hospital.
