Haydee Lopez Arencibia
February 24, 1933 — July 11, 2024
Haydee Lopez Arencibia, loving wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother, passed away peacefully on July 11, 2024, at the age of 91.
Born in Havana, Cuba, on February 24, 1933, to Lazaro Arencibia and Antonia Martinez, Haydee was a joyful and energetic child. She loved the performing arts and continued to enjoy music, dance and theater throughout her life.
Haydee met the love of her life, Tomas Lopez, and they married on February 27, 1953. In 1969, Haydee and Tomas, along with their four children, left Cuba and emigrated to the United States. Their 71 year marriage was a testament to their devotion to each other, and to their growing family.
After living in New Jersey for many years, Haydee and Tomas settled in Florida. Haydee enjoyed gardening and she prepared delicious Cuban dishes. Her greatest joy was spending time with her family, who affectionately called her Mimi. She is survived by her doting husband, Tomas, four devoted children, daughter, Rosa (husband Jesus) Ruiz, son, Tomas (wife Stacey) Lopez, daughter, Susana (husband Darryl) Farquhar, son, Juan Lopez. Haydee leaves her nine adoring grandchildren and spouses, Jennifer (husband Martin) Mennicke, Jessica (husband Ryan) Chalmers, Jaclyn (husband Andrew) Witmer, Julia (husband Adam) Finkelstein, Isabel (husband Mac) Ahsler, Joshua Lopez, Stephanie (husband Hunter) Mills, Benjamin Farquhar, Sabrina Lopez. Haydee will be missed by her eight great grandchildren, Riley, Mason, Hadley, Anderson, Layla, Parker, Stella, Rowan. Additionally, she is survived by her two sisters, Mercedes Arencibia and Teresa Arencibia.
A private memorial family service will be held to honor Haydee. She will be profoundly missed, but her spirit will continue to guide and inspire all who were blessed to know her.
