Sylvia Travieso, 82, of Mooresville, NC sadly passed away on September 2nd, 2022. She was born on May 3rd, 1940 in Manati, Puerto Rico. Her family will remember her as having spent her life in service to others; a dutiful daughter, a loving wife and mother, and as a grandmother to seven. Even in her work life, she chose to help others as a home health aide until retiring in the 90's to become a full time grandmother. Sylvia spent most of her adult life in New York City after moving there in the 1960's joining the ranks of thousands of other "Nuyoricans" who relocated to NYC in search of the American dream and who changed the cultural landscape of the city for generations to come. It was in NYC that she married her husband Benito and raised her three beautiful children Kenny, Lisa, and Sylvia. In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband Benito Travieso, her sister-in-law Gladys (Eddie) Flores, and by her only son Kenneth (Nina) Travieso. Sylvia is survived by her two loving daughters Sylvia (Evelio) Martinez and Lisa Travieso, her sister Nydia Acevedo, her seven grandchildren, her great granddaughter, and many nieces and nephews.
