Aracelia Toro

WATERBURY- Aracelia ?Arito? Toro ,74, was born in Aguadilla, Puerto Rico on September 29, 1938 and has fallen asleep in death on January 16, 2013 at Hartford Hospital surrounded by her loving family.

Arito moved to Waterbury in 1977 and has been a devoted wife, consummate mother, grandmother and homemaker. She was an excellent cook and enjoyed preparing meals and associating with family and friends. Over the years she collected dolls, enjoyed knitting, painting and loved to play dominos with family and friends.

Arito had an unwavering faith in Jehovah God. She dedicated her life in His service via baptism as a Jehovah's Witness on July 13, 1970 along with her husband. Her greatest love was the ministry, often sharing bible based truth with others. Down to her last days she often loved reading the bible, attending meetings and preached to whoever would listen. We now wait to reunite with her in Paradise when the resurrection of those in Jehovah's memory occur (John 5:28).

She leaves behind her husband of 52 years, Ramon Daniel Toro of Waterbury, her daughter Bianca Zarate and her husband Obed of New Milford, her two sons, Daniel A. and his wife Doracilia Toro of San Diego, CA, and Ramon Alberto Toro and his wife Evelyn of Wolcott, and her two grandchildren Danny and Dalicia. She also leaves her sisters Margarita Molina of Waterbury, Lucy, Juana, Leonides and a brother Candido Arce all of Aguadilla, PR, as well as many other family members and loved ones.
