Frances Yvonne Acevedo age 81, of Fort Myers, Florida passed on January 22, 2018.
Frances Yvonne Acevedo, affectionately known to family and friends as “Fran”, was born on September 9, 1936 in New York to Frank Rhys and Irene Padron. Frances was the sixth of seven siblings.
Frances attended high school in New York City and subsequently entered the workforce. She later married James Acevedo and was blessed with two beautiful children, Yvonne and Christine. After amicably parting ways, her third child, Albert was born.
Frances thoroughly enjoyed traveling. She joined a women’s travel club and loved cruising in her off-time. She was also a lover of good music and would often be found salsa dancing around the house.
After many years of dedicated service, Frances retired from the Boar’s Head Brand in the 1990s. She later moved to Fort Myers, Florida in 2000 to be closer to her daughter and grandchildren.
Fran is preceded in death by her parents, Frank Rhys and Irene Padron; daughter, Yvonne Acevedo; and siblings, Ernest Padron, Luis Gaiton, Enninque Padron, and “Baby sis” Irene Thompson.
