Primitivo Del

Valle

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of Primitivo Del Valle, fondly known as Tivo, on April 9, 2023, at the age of 93. Tivo was born in Havana, Cuba, on March 13, 1930, and married Angela in 1959. He also served as the president of the Jacomino Social Club in Cuba. Tivo left Cuba in 1965 with his wife and two children in search of a better life. After spending six months in Spain, he and his family eventually settled in New York City.

Tivo and his wife welcomed their third child in 1966. Despite working two jobs as a machinist at Cavalla Inc. in Hackensack, NJ, for over 30 years, Tivo remained a devoted husband, father, uncle, grandfather, and friend. He always prioritized his family's needs and cherished spending his free time watching a Yankees game or socializing with his friends on 180th street in Washington Heights, where he resided for many years.

Tivo's loved ones and friends will miss him deeply. He will be remembered for his compassionate and kindhearted nature, his unwavering loyalty to his loved ones, and his devotion to his community. Tivo's legacy will live on through the memories he left behind and the positive impact he had on the lives of those he touched.
