Daniel Penado Cisneros
December 16, 1935 - June 23, 2022 (Age 86)
Daniel Penado Cisneros, 86, of Charlotte, NC, died Thursday, June 23, 2022, at the Novant Medical Center Matthews Campus.
Daniel was born on December 16, 1935, in Jucuaran, El Salvador, the son of Reyes and Dionicia Romero Cisneros. He grew up there, working in Agriculture. In 1958, he married Miss Adela Alvarez, and they were blessed with 11 children. In 2009, they permanently moved to Charlotte, North Carolina. Blessed with a talent for music, Daniel loved to teach music to others, including his own family. He was also an excellent guitarist in addition to playing numerous other instruments. Daniel was also a man of faith, and he was involved with Faith Formation with his church family at Calvary Catholic Church in El Salvador as well as a member of the Legions of Mary at St John Neumann Catholic Church in Charlotte. Daniel was very proud of the fact that a young man who he taught as a catechist went into the ministry and returned to Daniel’s life to celebrate Daniel and Adela’s 50th wedding anniversary with a special Mass. Daniel’s love for his wife and marriage also led him to counsel many couples in marriage planning before they received that sacrament themselves. His family counts among the greatest blessings he left to be a love of music and a love of the Lord.
Daniel is survived by his wife, Adela, of Charlotte; his children: Efrain (wife Rubidia) Cisneros of New York, Jose Guillermo (wife Sandra) Cisneros of Houston, TX, Gloria (husband Carlos) Fuentes of Charlotte, Daisy (husband Francisco) Cisneros of New York, Moises (wife Lilliana) Cisneros of Charlotte, Emma (husband Alexander) Barohona of Charlotte, Alicia (husband Mauricio) Navarro of El Salvador, Sonia (husband Irvin) Cisneros of El Salvador, Alba (husband Melvin) Lara of Charlotte, and Reyes Cisneros of Spain; and three sisters: Erlinda, Carlota and Adela; and a brother, Baltazar. Daniel is further survived by 18 grand and 10 great grandchildren, and numerous other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents and siblings Dolores, Pastora, Soledad and Ester.
Daniel’s family has given the family of Lowe-Neddo Funeral Home the privilege of caring for him and for them.
