Margarita Robles

Margarita Robles, a cherished mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, passed away peacefully at her home on August 12, 2026. Born on January 8, 1946, in San Juan, Puerto Rico, Margarita brought warmth and light to all who knew her. She was the beloved daughter of Jose and Maria Robles, who instilled in her the values of kindness and community that she carried throughout her life. Margarita's life was a testament to the power of family and love. She is survived by her three devoted children, Jose Jr., Carlos, and Leslie, who were the center of her world. Her legacy continues through her grandchildren: Justin Robles, Carlos Jr. Robles, Jacklyn Restrepo, and Lissette Restrepo, as well as her two cherished great-grandchildren. Margarita’s home was always filled with laughter and the smell of her wonderful cooking, which she lovingly shared with family and friends. Her kitchen was a place of gathering, where stories were told, and memories were made. Known for her warm smile and generous spirit, Margarita had an extraordinary talent for growing and nurturing her vegetable garden. She took great joy in sharing the fruits of her labor with her neighbors, cultivating not only plants but also friendships and a sense of community. Her garden was a reflection of her life—vibrant, nurturing, and full of life. Margarita had a profound ability to make everyone feel welcome and loved. Her home and heart were always open, and those who crossed her threshold were sure to leave with a sense of belonging and a full belly. She took immense pride in her family, and her greatest joy came from spending time with her loved ones, whether it was during a Sunday dinner or a simple afternoon in the garden. A private service to honor Margarita’s life will be held on August 17, 2026, at 10 a.m. Her family invites those who knew her to remember her in their own way, celebrating the love and light she brought into the world. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that donations be made to a local community garden or food bank, reflecting Margarita’s passion for sharing and nurturing those around her. Her legacy of love, kindness, and community will continue to bloom in the hearts of all who knew her.
