Obituary:
Leona Urina Estrada Gainous, 81, of Orlando, Florida departed this life on Monday, January 26, 2026. Leona was born on November 10, 1944 in St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. She was employed as secretary with the Department of Children and Family Services for several years.
Leona was raised in a Christian, loving and close-knit family. At an early age, she acknowledged the Lord as her personal savior. She lived a life marked by faith, compassion, and love for others.
Leona’s greatest pride and joy was her family, especially her grandchildren. She generously poured her perceptive wisdom, unconditional love, comforting warmth and unshakable support to each of them. She taught them, through example, what kindness looks like, what patience feels like and what it means to be loved. She modeled the Golden Rule and encouraged her family to treat others as they would want to be treated. She was a loving mother, sister, grandmother and friend who will be deeply missed.
Leona leaves her precious memories with her 3 children, Joanne Rambhajan, Jeana Rambhajan, Joseph (Teresa) Rambhajan Jr; brother, Warren Estrada; sister, Eleanor Estrada; 9 grandchildren; 3 great grandchildren; and a host of other relatives and dear friends.

Mommy!!! Although God has sent you to his kingdom, you will forever live through me 🙏🏽You were the rock and backbone of our family and with all the morals you have instilled in me I will carry on your legacy. You are always in hearts so filled with love and happiness of having you in our lives then, now, and for eternity. I miss you Mom, I love you mom, Love, Pumpkin
Auntie Leona you were one of the greatest women and sweetest souls that I was blessed to have in my life! You carried yourself with so much love and grace. Our many conversations always had life lessons and I am grateful. Thank you for the beautiful memories and for always believing in me. One of my fondest memories was surprising you while I was in Orlando a few years back and you were doing what you do best baking/cooking. I was right on time!! You were baking a vienna cake and I said Auntie my vienna cake comes out like bread and nobody wants to help me with my recipe. You said “Don’t worry child, auntie got you!” Since that day, vienna cake is now my top seller in my baking business, thanks to you!!!
Auntie ,I will always love you, for you hold a special place in my heart!!! Your work here is done, you may rest now. Until we meet again.
Your great niece, Chandra
I will forever cherish the memories and love we shared. Auntie Leona was an aunt to me that can not be compared to any other. I will miss her laughs and jokes. I am grateful to have spent that personal time with her last year. The phone calls will be missed but I rest knowing that I you are where you want to be. Rest in peace Auntie.
I will always remember the times we spent laughing at the jokes you remembered. I am at peace in my heart feeling that you have made it over and is now resting. Resting in the arms of Jesus. 😢
Dear Great-aunt Leona, although our time was way too short, I am extremely grateful knowing that I got to sit by your bedside and share so many memories with you. I’m especially thankful and at peace with the tough that you got to meet my daughter for the first time. The words you shared with us will forever be etched into my heart. Rest in peace aunt. Thank you for loving on me the way you did 🩷❤️
As your caregiver, it was more than a job to care for you — it was a privilege. In the quiet moments, in the long days, in the small conversations and even in the silence, I saw your strength
You trusted me in vulnerable moments, and I will never take that lightly. I watched you fight, endure, hope, and sometimes simply rest. Through it all, you remained human — deserving of dignity, compassion, and respect.
Though my role was to provide care, you gave me something in return. You reminded me why I do this work. You reminded me that every life matters, every story is important, and every person deserves to be treated with love.
Now that you are at peace, I carry the memory of caring for you in my heart. You were not just a patient to me — you were someone I was honored to serve.
Rest gently. You will not be forgotten.
Your mom was a wonderful person.Mayher legacy of love and kindness continue to live in you “.
Dear Grandma,
You were the best grandma I could have ever asked for. You taught me everything I needed to know about life and showed me what real love truly feels like. Because of you, I am who I am today. I miss your smile, your laugh, and hearing you say, “Sonia, can you put my song on?” I’ll never hear “I’ll Take You Home” without thinking of you. That will always be our song. You may be gone, but you will forever live in my heart and in my spirit. I love you so much, my beautiful grandma — my lefty twin.
Rest in paradise. ❤️
My love, My light, My Angel! You’ve found your wings and now my heart is heavy and hollow. No words will EVER amount to what you mean to me grandma. I feel so empty, so shattered, so hopeless knowing I’ll never see your smile again or hear you call me pumpkin. To ask God why would be cruel because I know you were in pain but damn I’m going to miss you. I love you with every once in me my love and I thank you for everything. There’s no me without you grandma but I’m going to do my very best. Your finally at rest my dear!
Miss you Grandma, I will forever remember the times you’ve showed so much love to me even at your lowest. Now you are at your highest you can be, see you soon.
Mom I Miss you so so so much!!!!😡😓😢😥
