Park Councilwoman Silvia Villegas, 50, dies
by Justin Zaremba
The Prospect Park community will honor a deceased councilwoman with a
memorial service on April 5.
Councilwoman Silvia Villegas, 50, died on Thursday. Prospect
Park Mayor Mohamed Khairullah said officials were still awaiting a
report from the medical examiner’s office, adding that the results
could take "up to 10 weeks" as to the cause of the councilwoman’s death.
"I know she was ill," Khairullah said. "She was in and out
of the hospital."
Khairullah said Villegas’ death was "an unfortunate and
tragic loss."
Khairullah said on March 24, the evening before she died,
Villegas was at borough hall assembling baskets for the upcoming Easter
egg hunt. The mayor indicated that Villegas left at the end of the
night intending to make more baskets.
Khairullah said the community has come together in the wake
of Villegas’ death stating that a group of residents had collected
$1,000 over the weekend for a memorial service.
"It showed how much love people have for her," Khairullah
said.
Funeral services for Villegas were held on March 29 at St.
Paul's Roman Catholic Church in Prospect Park.
Khairullah said the memorial service for Villegas on April 5
will take prior to the council meeting that starts at 6:30 p.m.
Villegas was employed by Marcal Paper in Elmwood Park. She
began her career on the council in January of 2009 and her term expires
in 2012.
