Francisca Antonia Ortiz

July 3, 1946 — February 7, 2025

Francisca “Francis” Ortiz of Ellenville, NY sadly passed away on Friday February 7th, 2025.
Born in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic on July 3rd, 1946. She was the daughter of Juana Diaz and Francisco Ortiz.
Francis’s life can best be described by four “F” words: Family, Friends, Food and Fun. She was always described as the life of the party. Her smile and laugh would light up the entire room. She loved and cared for everyone she came in contact with. To know her was to know love. She would pray for you, she would take care of you and your children, she would cry with you, and she would treat you like one of her own. She loved to spend time with her family. She loved her children and grandchildren with all her heart. She was a hard-working woman that had a strong passion for music. She loved to dance, never encountering a bad dance partner.
She was predeceased by her parents and her son Francisco Sanchez and her brother Batista.
She is survived by her children Jasmine, Henry, Plinio (Brittany) and Joselyn (Joe). Her grandchildren Jazlene, Iz’abella, Maddux, Micheal, Brooke, Sasha, Sarah, Plinio Jr., Jose, Danny, Micheal and Bella. Along with many great grandchildren. She is also survived by her siblings Rafael, Onixia, Wilson, Daisy, Belkis (Micheal), along with many nieces and nephews.
In remembrance of Francis, she wouldn’t have wanted us to be sad and crying, she always said be happy because I am going to be with the Lord in Heaven put music on, dance and sing because I am at peace. Remember all the good memories we’ve shared and wipe your tears away.
