Jorge Delgado

Our beloved Jorge Delgado entered into eternal rest on Saturday, October 25, surrounded by his family.

He is survived by his devoted wife of 65 years, Mercedes, and his daughters Sandra Janette and Edith Xiomara, and her husband José Arturo Cobos. He was a proud grandfather to Sofía Verónica and Dario Alejandro, who brought him endless joy.

Jorge will be remembered for his kind heart, generosity, sense of humor, deep faith, love of family, and unwavering work ethic. He built a beautiful life with Mercedes, raising their family with values of love, integrity, and perseverance. His stories, laughter, and wisdom will be forever cherished by all who knew him.

Born in Colombia, Jorge immigrated to New York, where he built a wonderful life for his family and worked as a NYC yellow cab driver for more than 35 years. The city became his second home and a source of pride throughout his life. He enjoyed connecting with people from all walks of life and took great pride in helping them find their way through the busy streets of New York.

In his free time, Jorge found joy in gardening, taking walks through his beautiful neighborhood, spending time with his grandchildren, and caring for the family’s beloved pets, who were always by his side.

He will be deeply missed but forever remembered with love.

A funeral service will be held at Pleasant Manor Funeral Home on Saturday morning.  The service will also be live-streamed starting at 10:30 a.m. EST on the funeral home’s website at https://www.pleasantmanorfh.com

Nuestro querido Jorge Delgado entrará en su descanso eterno el sábado 25 de octubre, rodeado de su familia.

Le sobrevive su amada esposa de 65 años, Mercedes, y sus hijas Sandra Janette y Edith Xiomara, junto a su esposo José Arturo Cobos. Fue un orgulloso abuelo de Sofía Verónica y Dario Alejandro, quienes llenaron su vida de alegría.

Jorge será recordado por su gran corazón, generosidad, sentido del humor, profunda fe, amor por su familia y su inquebrantable ética de trabajo. Construyó una vida hermosa junto a Mercedes, criando a su familia con valores de amor, integridad y perseverancia. Sus historias, risas y sabiduría serán siempre recordadas con cariño por todos los que lo conocieron.

Nacido en Colombia, Jorge emigró a Nueva York, donde construyó una hermosa vida junto a su familia y trabajó como conductor de taxi amarillo por más de 35 años. La ciudad se convirtió en su segundo hogar y en una fuente de orgullo durante toda su vida. Disfrutaba conectar con personas de todos los caminos de la vida y se sentía feliz de ayudarlas a encontrar su destino entre las concurridas calles de Nueva York.

En su tiempo libre, Jorge encontraba felicidad en cuidar su jardín, caminar por su hermoso vecindario, compartir tiempo con sus nietos y cuidar a las queridas mascotas de la familia, que siempre estaban a su lado.

Será profundamente extrañado, pero recordado con amor eterno.

El servicio fúnebre se llevará a cabo en Pleasant Manor Funeral Home la mañana del sábado.
