Alvio A. Vera, Sr.

August 7, 1939 — March 29, 2026

Palm Springs, Florida

Alvio, un esposo, padre y amigo devoto, falleció el 29 de marzo de 2026, dejando un legado de dedicación, valentía y amor inquebrantable por su familia.

Nacido en Holguín, Cuba, en 1939, Alvio creció durante un período de cambios profundos. De joven sirvió en el ejército cubano y participó en el conflicto en torno a la toma del poder comunista, experiencias que forjaron su fortaleza de carácter y un profundo aprecio por la libertad y las oportunidades.

Se mudó a La Habana, Cuba, por trabajo, donde conoció a Silvia, el amor de su vida. Se casaron en 1963 y pronto dieron la bienvenida a sus dos hijos. Tras tres años juntos, la pareja tomó la difícil pero valiente decisión de emigrar a Estados Unidos en busca de un futuro mejor para sus hijos. Dos años después de establecerse en Passaic, Nueva Jersey, su familia se completó con el nacimiento de su hija.

En Estados Unidos, Alvio trabajó incansablemente como contratista de construcción en Nueva Jersey y Nueva York durante 12 años. A través de la dedicación y el trabajo arduo, sostuvo a su familia y construyó un hogar estable y amoroso. Atesoraba el tiempo con sus hijos: acampando, pescando y creando recuerdos que durarían toda la vida. También disfrutaba de animadas partidas de dominó con familiares y amigos, aprovechando las libertades y oportunidades que ofrecía su nuevo país.

En 1979, Alvio y Silvia se trasladaron a Florida con sus tres hijos, comenzando un nuevo capítulo lleno de sol, reuniones familiares y las famosas asadas de cerdo navideñas que tanto le gustaba organizar. Continuó disfrutando de jugar dominó con amigos y permaneció como un pilar de fortaleza y calidez dentro de su familia. Será recordado por su dedicación inquebrantable, fuerte ética de trabajo y los muchos sacrificios que hizo para que sus seres queridos pudieran prosperar.

Alvio es recordado con cariño por su esposa, Silvia, sus hijos, numerosos nietos y bisnietos, y todos aquellos que tuvieron el privilegio de conocerlo.

Alvio, a devoted husband, father, and friend, passed away on March 29, 2026, leaving a legacy of dedication, courage, and unwavering love for his family.

Born in Holguin, Cuba in 1939, Alvio came of age during a period of profound change. As a young man he served in the Cuban military and took part in the conflict surrounding the Communist takeover — experiences that forged his strength of character and a deep appreciation for freedom and opportunity.

He moved to Havana, Cuba, for work, where he met Silvia, the love of his life. They married in 1963 and soon welcomed their two sons. After three years together the couple made the difficult but courageous decision to immigrate to the United States in search of a better future for their children. Two years after settling in Passaic, New Jersey, their family was complete with the birth of their daughter.

In the United States, Alvio worked tirelessly as a construction contractor throughout New Jersey and New York for 12 years. Through dedication and hard labor, he provided for his family and built a stable, loving home. He cherished time with his children—camping, fishing, and creating memories that would last a lifetime. He also enjoyed lively games of dominoes with family and friends, embracing the freedoms and opportunities his new country offered.

In 1979, Alvio and Silvia relocated to Florida with their three children, beginning a new chapter filled with sunshine, family gatherings, and the famous holiday pig roasts he loved to host. He continued to enjoy playing dominoes with friends and remained a pillar of strength and warmth within his family. He will be remembered for his unwavering dedication, strong work ethic, and the many sacrifices he made so his loved ones could thrive.

Alvio is lovingly remembered by his wife, Silvia, their children, many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
