Acts 20:35

On the evening of March 5th, 2025, Elisa Esther Cabrera also lovingly known as Mima, passed away peacefully at the age of 91 in Lake Wales Fl. Elisa was born on May 17th, 1933, in Santurce, Puerto Rico to parents Daniel Cabrera and Librada Rivera. Elisa was known for her strong will, unwavering determination and her love for her family. After leaving Puerto Rico in 1956, Elisa started her journey to Detroit Michigan where she lived until 1986. As a young mother, Elisa was determined to bring her siblings from Puerto Rico to Detroit and New York so they could all be reunited. Elisa was a modest humble, hard-working woman who would give the shirt of her back if needed. Elisa will be missed beyond words, as she was our rock and our family's foundation. Elisa is survived by her children; Edgardo Cabrera, Mary Woznicki, Lucy Heintzelman and Letty Bromley. Elisa is also survived by her 15 Grandchildren, countless great and great great grandchildren and 4 loving sisters, Amparo Gomez, Olga Diaz, Ruth Cabrera Gonzalez and Lydia Connelly.
