Aimee Silvetti Obituary

Aimee Romero Silvetti passed away April 2, 2020 in Lake Zurich. She was born December 7, 1928 in Erath, Louisiana to Clomaire and Ella Romero. Aimee was the second youngest in a family of ten. She lived in Maryland and Texas before arriving in the Chicago area and eventually settling down in Morton Grove, where she proudly raised her six children as a single mother. She was dedicated to taking care of her family and was always available to offer a helping hand in the time of need. She placed family above all else and will be profoundly missed by them. Aimee took great pleasure in cooking and baking Christmas cookies, especially. She was trilingual and surprised many people throughout the years by her fluency in Spanish and French. Survivors include her children, Alex (Karen) Garcia, Jerry (Deborah) Silvetti, Perry (Christine) Silvetti, Chris (Joan) Silvetti, Tim (Jana) Silvetti, and Annette (Doug) Sielck; grandchildren, Michelle and Alexis Garcia, Rachel, Tim (Becca), Ted, Christopher, Ryan, Nicole, Lindsey, Carley and Michael Silvetti, Nick, Doug and Brett Sielck and great grandchildren, Vivian, Grace, Tony, Delilah, Emma, and Hudson. She was preceded in death by her brothers Lawrence, Dalton "Pete", and Larice Romero and four sisters Louise LeBouef, Lola Vallot, Nola Lopez, Anita LeBlanc, and grandson, Anthony C.P. (Tony) Silvetti. Services will be held at a later date. Visit www.davenportfamily.com for updated service information and to send condolences to the family.

Mama, you were such a strong woman! Growing up you always had it all together, always looked so pretty, our home was beautiful and clean and there were always home cooked meals when TV dinners were the thing. You were always willing to lend a helping hand to anyone. You loved the holidays and spent so much time preparing; it made you so proud! I admire how you had so much self-respect to very quickly move forward as a single mother. I also admire how you always fought so very hard for what was right for your children and the struggles you constantly encountered, there were so many. Youve passed along some very strong blood to your family! Ill forever miss bringing you your favorite chocolate donut and sharing together with you our favorite candies of Jelly Bellies and Twizzlers and seeing your eyes light up. You will be forever missed. May you now rest in peace. Love you always and forever, Netti
