HAVERHILL – Our family is heartbroken to announce the passing of our beloved father. Orlando Madera Vásquez was born in La Vega, Dominican Republic on April 16, 1935 to the late Orlando Madera Guzman and Ana Julia Vasquez. He was an avid TV and radio repairman until 1994. At a very young age he became a Christian and since then, his faith played an important part of his life.
This past Monday October 31, 2022 he took his last breath on earth but his first in heaven in the arms of the Lord. He spent his last days at home in Haverhill, MA. Our dad loved reading his Bible in the sunroom with a cup of coffee. He enjoyed playing dominoes with his kids in the evenings, listening to mariachi music, and eating anything sweet.
Orlando was blessed with a large and loving family. He is survived by his brother, Mario, and his sisters Fellita, Irma, and Gladys. His children: Dinorah, Yolanda, Fiordaliza, Orlando, Miguel, Jackeline, Elvis, Maritza, Danisse, Jose Miguel, Mary Helen, Yaritza, Johanna, Dawel, and Marilyn. His grandkids: Rachel, Israel, Dayana, Edinson, Eduard, Aquiles, Michael, Charleny, Chantal, Junior, Brian, Audrey, Evelyn, Edwardo, Ashton, Ashley, Genesis, Jean Carlos, Jireh, David, Daniel, Alaia, Amy, and Aleen. And great grandkids Jonas and Emma. He is preceded in death by his siblings: Emilio, Miguel, and Octavio; his daughter, Maria Mercedes, and grandson, Jamal.
“One thing I have desired of the LORD,
That will I seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the LORD
All the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the LORD,
And to inquire in His temple.”
Psalms 27:4
We are happy to know that our dad is rejoicing in the presence of the Lord, beholding His beauty.
Forever loved!
