Felix S. Rivera

Felix S. Rivera, a cherished soul whose vibrant presence touched the lives of many, has left us on May 22, 2024, in Hartford, Connecticut. Born on March 2, 1934, in the beautiful town of Adjuntas, Puerto Rico, Felix brought joy and laughter wherever he went.

Described as fun-loving and hard-working, Felix's warmth and kindness knew no bounds. He had a passion for cooking that delighted many taste buds, and his love for baseball and football was infectious. Not to mention his fondness for playing the lottery, always believing in the possibility of a lucky strike.

Felix's memory will forever be treasured by the love of his life, Margarita Rodriguez, Children: Zenaida Ivette Rios (William Rios), Julio Mangual (Marcella Mangual).  Grandchildren:  William Jr., Matthew, Khahari, Taliah and Shiquan. Siblings:  Antonia Colon, Juanita Amaro, Fernando Sierra.  A host of extended family and circle of friends also mourn his loss deeply.

A visitation to honor Felix S. Rivera's life will take place on June 5, 2024, starting at 10:00 AM at Compagnola Funeral Home on 5th St., Philadelphia. Following this tribute, a burial service will be held at Greenmount Cemetery in Philadelphia at 12:30 PM.

In Felix's departure from this world, we find solace in knowing that his memory will continue to live on in the hearts of all who knew him. His legacy of love, laughter, and hard work will inspire generations to come.

May his soul rest in eternal peace.
