Blanca Marleny Classens

Blanca Marleny Classens (Isaza), 76, of Ocala, Florida, passed away on April 6, 2026, at HCA Ocala Hospital.

Blanca was born on June 1, 1949, in Versalles, Antioquia, Colombia, to Francisco Isaza Valencia and Carolina Mejia Restrepo. She carried her Colombian roots with pride throughout her life and built a legacy centered on love, family, and resilience.

Blanca was a woman whose greatest joy and purpose in life was her family. She loved deeply and selflessly, always putting those she cared for above all else. Whether through her nurturing presence, her wisdom, or the simple comfort of her cooking and conversation, she created a home filled with warmth, laughter, and unconditional love.

She is survived by her loving husband, Samuel Classens; her son Christian Classens, his wife Huaina, and their children Sophia, Alyssa, Alex, and Nico; and her son Luis Classens, his wife Kelly, and their children Aliyah and Luis Jr., each of whom she cherished dearly.

Blanca is also survived by her siblings Cecilia, Magnolia, Tony, Orlando, and Frank, as well as all her beloved nieces and nephews.

Her memory will live on through the lives she touched, the family she built, and the love she gave so freely. She will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
