Lucia Isa Ugalde, 91, passed away peacefully at her home in Union City, New Jersey, on March 7, 2026, surrounded by the love of her family.

Born on July 6, 1934 in Matanzas, Cuba, to Andres Su and Josefina Morales, Lucia, affectionately known as Isa, was the eldest of 9 siblings. From a young age, she embraced the role of devoted sister, helping raise her younger siblings and supporting countless family members and friends who entered their lives.

Isa was a loving and dedicated wife to her husband, Bernardo Ugalde, with whom she shared 63 wonderful years of marriage. Together, they built a beautiful life full of great memories and wonderful examples on how to live. They worked tirelessly to fulfill their dream and were able to bring their family from Cuba to the United States over the years.

She was an extraordinary sister, a cherished aunt to many nieces and nephews whom she loved as her own, and the beloved matriarch of the Su Morales family. Family was her center. Her home, and especially our grandmother's home, was a gathering place filled with warmth, holiday celebrations, and daily dinners that brought everyone together.

Isa's life was defined by her deep love for her family, her unwavering faith in God, and her boundless kindness, compassion, and strength. Her love for Cuba remained a profound part of her identity. She was deeply involved in the Cuban community through various organizations and her devotion to La Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre. She prayed endlessly for a free and prosperous Cuba.
