Emily Ortiz, 56, of Union, passed away peacefully at home on November 1, 2024.
Emily was a vibrant soul who brought joy to all who knew her. She had a love for adventure and could often be found on her motorcycle or Camaro, enjoying the freedom of the open road. She was passionate about shopping—especially for shoes, and always looked forward to her next vacation travel adventure. She was also a massive fan of Marc Anthony’s music, often dancing along to his songs, filling the room with her infectious energy and joy. Above all, her family was the most crucial part of her life, and she found her greatest joy in spending time with her loved ones, especially her beloved grandchildren.
Emily is survived by her cherished family: husband Daniel, children Samantha, David, and Danny; daughter-in-law Stephania and grandkids Luis and Jeramy; mother and stepfather Iris and Wilson; siblings Marilyn, Lisandra, Sonia, Victor, and wife Evelyn; father and stepmother Lemuel and Maria; and countless friends and family members who will forever hold her in their hearts.
A visitation to honor Emily’s life will be held on Wednesday, November 6, 2024, from 3:30 to 7 p.m. at Galante Funeral Home, 2800 Morris Ave. Union, NJ. Family and friends are welcome to come together to celebrate her life, share memories, and remember the wonderful, lively person she was.
