Rafael Sibilly's Obituary
It is with extreme sadness that we announce the passing of Rafael Sibilly, 82, who passed away on January 21, 2022.
He is survived by his wife, Margarita “Charo” Sibilly; his children, Luis, Johnny, Reinardo, Denis and Anel; 16 grandchildren; 9 great-grandchildren; sister, Luisa Sibilly as well as his extended family and an abundance of friends. Preceding him in death was his loving daughter, Analee Sibilly and his brother, Leo Sibilly.
Anyone who knew Rafael was touched by his kindness, humor and loving spirit. Rafael absolutely loved attention as well as giving it. Rafael had a strong faith in God. His family meant more to him than anything else in the world, something he always mentioned. He was undoubtedly a dedicated and loving father. His favorite pastime was either watching baseball or talking with his childhood friends on the phone. He enjoyed strolling Publix and talking with anyone who would give him the time. But most of all, he enjoyed family get togethers and watching his grandchildren grow.
