**In Loving Memory of Wilfredo “Junito” Vargas**  

Wilfredo “Junito” Vargas passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family and friends. A devoted husband, father, brother, cousin, uncle, and grandfather, Junito leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and unforgettable memories.  

He is survived by his beloved wife of 20 years, Katiria Vargas, and his cherished sons, Wilfredo Jr, Dylen, Bryan and Christian Vargas. His brothers, Anthony Caraballo, Jose Vargas, and Alfredo Vargas, also mourn his passing, along with his cousin Jesica Irizarry and nieces Jaelle and Jazelle Irizarry. His precious granddaughter, Victoria Vargas, will carry his spirit forward, holding dear the love and joy he brought to her life.  

Junito was a man of many passions, including his love for cars and music. He had a heart that knew no bounds, always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. Whether it was a friend or a stranger, Junito’s famous phrase, “I got you,” was a promise he never failed to fulfill. His selflessness and generosity were unparalleled, often going to great lengths to ensure others felt supported and cared for.  

Known affectionately as “Yum Yum” by his family, his love for food and sweets was a source of laughter and endearment. His contagious smile and zest for life radiated positivity, attracting nothing but good vibes wherever he went. A true goofball, he brought joy and laughter to every room he entered.  

Junito’s love for his family was unwavering, and he fought selflessly to be there for them. He treasured every moment spent with his loved ones, creating memories filled with warmth, laughter, and love. His faith remained a guiding light in his life, exemplified by the scripture: Philippians 1:21-23, "For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far."  

Wilfredo “Junito” Vargas will forever be remembered for his boundless love, generosity, and unwavering faith. His legacy will live on through the lives he touched and the family he adored. Rest in peace, Junito—you will be deeply missed but never forgotten.

Wilfredo will be cremated, and Memorial Service will be held on Jan 4th, 2025, from 12pm-4pm at Mill Plain-Nea Zoe church on 242 Southmayd Rd Waterbury, CT 06705.
