Villegas, Amelia Jane – Amelia Jane Villegas, our darling girl, gained her angel wings on September 15, 2022, surrounded by her loving family at home. She was 4 years old.
Amelia battled a brain tumor for more than half her life, but was not defined by illness. In fact, she lived an active life full of laughter and music, and danced her way into the hearts of all who were blessed to meet her. She was a lover as well as a fighter; she believed in girl power and sang about it often. She showed her fearlessness and strength loud and proud, leaving sparks in her wake as everyone else merely tried to keep up with her. Maybe most importantly, she taught those around her to always choose happiness, choose love.
Amelia is survived by her parents, Jillian and Jose; her beloved older brother, Mateo; and grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins who felt the glow of her life from every corner of the world.
Funeral services will take place in St. Bernard's Catholic Church, Enfield on Wednesday, September 21 at 11 am. Flowers and donations are gratefully accepted in Amelia's honor.
