Obituary

Ms. Olga Ana Sinclair, affectionately known as "Chiquita," was born on May 4, 1943, in Colón, Panama, to the late Percival and Ruby Sinclair. A woman of remarkable strength, dignity, and resilience, Olga lived a life marked by service, devotion to family, and unwavering faith. Olga worked as a housekeeper at the World Trade Center in New York City and was a proud 9/11 survivor, a testament to her courage and perseverance through one of history's most challenging moments. Throughout her life, she carried herself with quiet confidence, pride, and grace, earning the respect and admiration of all who knew her. Known throughout her family as the "Panamanian Queen," Olga was a cherished matriarch whose presence brought comfort, wisdom, and stability. She served as the family's unofficial secretary, keeping everyone informed and organized, and was affectionately regarded as their lifelong security guard for life; always watching over and protecting those she loved. Olga had a deep appreciation for music and enjoyed listening to songs in both English and Spanish. She was a woman of simple but steadfast beliefs, often trusting in natural remedies and sharing the conviction that honey and lime could cure almost anything. She often joked that her family drove her crazy on a daily basis, but the truth is that she knew just how deeply and endlessly she was loved. A phenomenal mother and grandmother, her greatest wish was always that her children and grandchildren would be okay, no matter what life brought their way. She devoted her life to caring for those she loved, even when they tested her patience. Green was her favorite color, a reflection of the warmth and vibrancy she brought into every room. She enjoyed listening to Pastor Dale Bronner, watching her favorite YouTuber SoFlo, and spending time with her granddaughters enjoying reality shows, including Baddies. Though naturally quiet, Olga's influence was profound. Her faith guided her daily life, and one of her most memorable expressions was, "God willing," a phrase she spoke often and one that reflected her trust in God's plan. She was preceded in death by her parents, Percival and Ruby Sinclair. She leaves cherished memories to her son, Emilio Sinclair (Joyce Ortega); daughter, Colette King; grandchildren, Melanie King, Natalia King-Phillip (Jhaunell Elliott), Tyanna King-Busche (Jonathon Berry), Allante Sinclair, Talysa King-Busche, Aneesa Sinclair and Reina Sinclair; great-grandchildren, David Ortega, Nyel Thomas, Isaiah Lopez, Harper Elliott and Aloura Elliott; and special friends, Joyce, Anna, Lucille and Horacio. "God willing," we will meet again.
