Wilbert Navarro

December 11, 1963 - November 27, 2025

Wilbert Navarro, 61 of Long Branch died suddenly on Thursday, November 27th at his home.

He was born and raised in Puerto Rico and moved to the United States after Hurricane Maria. Wilbert had a zest for life; he enjoyed cooking as well as sharing his culinary cuisine with family and friends. Wilbert had a magnetic presence which gave people reason to laugh and trust in Divine Providence; he knew that God has a sense of humor! He always said that we all come with an expiration date; unfortunately, his came so unexpectedly while many were giving thanks Wilbert gave a final thanks to God for his gift of life as well as his family and friends. He loved to travel, visiting Spain and Italy as well as South America. Wilbert especially enjoyed cruises, always making sure he sampled all the food they offered. Several times each year he travelled back to Puerto Rico to spend time with family and friends. Wilbert enjoyed antiquing and thrift shopping, finding outrageous bargains. His essence and presence will be sorely missed; he was a person you could never forget.

Surviving are his brothers and their spouses, Luis A. Navarro and Christina and Orlando Navarro and Marilyn Gonzalez; his sister and her husband, Millie and Father Vincent Rumain; along with many extended family and friends in Puerto Rico.

In accordance with his wishes he will be cremated with no services scheduled. His cremains will be entombed at a later date at Mt. Carmel Cemetery, West Long Branch

Wilbert’s passing was sudden and heartbreaking, and we are still struggling to comprehend a world without his light. He lifted up friends, encouraged everyone around him to grow, to advocate for themselves, and to believe in their own worth.” His love for animals was un-matched, especially for my beloved four dogs: Francesca, Valentina, Enzo and Gianni! I have to say that Valentina was his favorite!!!

Mi más sentido pésame para toda la familia . Que para el brille la Luz Perpetua.

Wilo and Abuelo.

This photo is how I will always remember Wilo. Us on the road around Puerto Rico, hopping from place to place. We did this a few times until we literally stopped in what felt like the entire island. We went to Caracas Venezuela. And more recently New Jerseys. Just a few weeks back we were talking about again going to Cape May , the Patterson waterfall, Atlantic City, beach town hopping down NJ coast. And even to the Hindu temple complex in Windsor NJ. I always invited him to come with me to my timeshare in Puerto Plata DR. We were of the same adventurous heart and had great fun together. I will always miss him.

will always remember all the great fun we had and would have had. I am sorry your live was cut short. With all my love; Rest in Peace!

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.

Descansa en paz! Siempre serás recordado.

Wilo gracias por como siempre te portaste con migo y mi familia siempre te recordaré con mucho cariño fuiste una gran persona descansa en paz

Love You my brother

Mi más sentido pésame a toda la familia inmediata. Que Dios le de el descanso eterno. Amen

Siempre viviras en cada recuerdo y historia vividas QEPD

Descansa en paz querido primo 💙 siempre fuistes un exelente ser humano siempre t recordaremos

Tío Wilo, tú y tus hermanos tenían un lazo que muchos envidiarían. Todos eran tan unidos, y era algo muy especial de ver. Recuerdo cuando era más joven y admiraba cuánto vivías tu vida al máximo. Viajando por el mundo y siendo tú mismo. Eras sin miedo. Definitivamente un rasgo Navarro. Recuerdo cuando Yasiris y yo fuimos a Puerto Rico para Navidad y nos regalaste una botella de Merlot; estábamos tan emocionadas por tomarla que esperamos hasta Año Nuevo para abrirla. Cuando fuiste conmigo y con papi a llevarme al aeropuerto cuando viajé a Grecia, solo para que papi no manejara de regreso solo. Eras tan especial y tan amado. Aunque eras el menor de los cuatro, eras un ser que cuidaba y protegía a los que te rodeaban. Sé que ahora cuidarás de ellos hasta que todos se reencuentren. Te quiero.

Descansa en paz 🕊️ Bro! 😥 💔

Wishing you peace and comfort during this difficult time."

Millie and family please accept my deepest condolences The loss is truly heartbreaking ,but i hope his memory brings you joy and laughter and inner warmth

Wilo was like a brother to me; he was always looking out for me as my stamina diminished with age. His magnanimous presence and laugh would make you realize that life should not be taken so seriously. Even though he had little he gave and gave generously from the goodness of his heart. He truly lived out Jesus’ command: “what you do for the least of my brothers and sisters you do for Me. May you dance with joy brother Wilo with all your family and friends who were waiting for you in heaven in the awesome presence of God who loved you into and through your life and now wants you to look after your grieving loved ones here on the other side is the veil. Your earthly mission is accomplished, but your heavenly mission has just begun.
