Amantina A. Polanco
Passed on February 4, 2023
We have lost our beloved mother Amantina at the age of 82. At the time of her death, she was surrounded by her family. Amantina’s journey began when she left the Dominican Republic (“DR”)to work as an ER nurse at a hospital in Puerto Rico (“PR”). After working in Puerto Rico, she made her way to New York in the 1960s and soon became a proud United States citizen. She was the matriarch and “pilgrim“ of the Polanco family. She is survived by her three daughters Wanda, Rosa and Betsy Urena. She was the proud grandmother of Adriana, Karina and Roman. Survived by her siblings Maria, Hortencia, Pedro, Amadeo, Consuelo and Ana Josefina Polanco. She will live through all of us and will never be forgotten for she is the sun in our universe.
