WILMINGTON — Lenin Javier Romero Munguia, age 39, of Wilmington, North Carolina passed away unexpectedly Thursday, May 5, 2022. The family is deeply saddened by his sudden death. He was born on March 30,1983, attended Morristown High School, and lived in Morristown, New Jersey prior to moving to North Carolina.
Lenin worked for Pleasant Motor Company for 15 years as a car sales manager where he became part of the Pleasant family, and previously was in the military. He most recently worked with R.M. Construction.

He is survived by his wife, Amarilis Romero; daughters, Juliana, Zoe, and Lydia; Grandmother, Lydia Munguia; Grandfather, Narciso Munguia; mother, Julia Munguia; brothers, Carlos Romero and Jairo Romero; a large extended family and many friends. He will be missed more than words can describe.
