Elvira O’Neill, age 87, of Lincoln Park, NJ, passed away peacefully on Saturday, May 13, 2017.
Elvira was born in Havana, Cuba. In her early twenties, she emigrated to the United States and initially settled in New York City. It was there that she met her husband John and they married in 1957. After starting a family, Elvira and John moved to Garfield and later to Lincoln Park where they raised their four children. They enjoyed a marriage that spanned twenty four years until John’s passing in 1981.
Elvira was the loving mother of Maureen O’Neill of Lincoln Park, John and his wife Mary O’Neill of Ellicott City, Maryland, Linda and her husband Robert Schaal of Riverdale, and Margaret O’Neill of Verona. She was the cherished grandmother of Lisa and Jaclyn Schaal, and Michael, Evan and Jillian O’Neill. Surviving also are her dear sister Mercedes Mesa of Tampa, Florida, many dear nieces and nephews and their families, and her devoted dog Chanel. Elvira was predeceased by her beloved husband John in 1981, her parents Francisco and Aracelia Rivero, her sister Caridad Otero, and her brother Francisco Rivero.
