Obituary of Nathaniel J Figueroa

Chacho papitooo, it is with a heavy heart we announce that Nathaniel "Nito" Figueroa, 21, was called home unexpectedly on Friday, June 17, 2022. He was born on March 15, 2001. He was currently enrolled at Rowan College of South Jersey where he will 'Forever be a Duke'.

Nito is predeceased by his maternal and paternal great grandparents, whom will be waiting with open arms along with our Heavenly Father, Judy, Elba, Pappa, Junito and Ayden.

Nito is survived by his loving parents, Holvin Jr. and Rosalie Figueroa; brother, Holvin (Crystel); sister, Bianca (Wilson); nephew and nieces, Owen, MayaLiz and Analise. His maternal grandparents, Luis and María Rodríguez; paternal grandparents, Holvin Sr. and Rosa Figueroa; godparents, Benjamin Cruz and Anna Rodriguez; ride or dies, Bebecito, Chase, LeeLee, Nara, Jeremiah and JoeJoe; girlfriend, Nyci; and several aunts, uncles, cousins and awesome friends.

The word 'hero' is defined as "a person admired for achievements and noble qualities". These characteristics describe who Nito was and how he, ultimately, met his demise. Heem Bobo's positive energy, contagious smile and unforgettable phrases will be sadly missed, you diggggg! The phrase "life is too short" has shown time and time again to be true. Remember, there is no guarantee that tomorrow will come to correct mistakes.
