Adolfo Del Valle's Obituary
Adolfo del Valle, 78, of Miami, Florida passed away on May 29, 2022.
Adolfo del Valle was born in Tumbes, Peru, in 1943 to Adolfo del Valle Franco and Norma Lucrecia Da Silva. As a young man, he attended college in Ica, Peru, where he studied history. While studying in Ica, he met the love of his life Gladys Lecaros. They were married in 1965 and made their home in Lima, Peru, where they had three children and he worked alongside his father in the family's Machine Shop business which he continued to build for his entire working career. Following their children, they moved part time to Miami, Florida, in the early 90's and as their family grew, spent more and more time in Miami.
Adolfo's passion was learning about history, cultures, art and music. He loved to read and study about the world and enjoyed travels to several countries around the world - including Spain, France, Italy, Turkey and all over South America. He loved to entertain people at his home with parties and barbeques. His family will always remember him for the lessons he would give on any given subject, his never wavering love for his family and friends and his way of making anything fun. He created a life filled with memories of fun adventures, singing, dancing and love.
Adolfo is survived by his wife, Gladys; their children Quecha and Julio Delgado, Adolfo and Cortnae del Valle; and Ricardo and Cigdem del Valle. As well as their six grandchildren: Julio, Eduardo, Daniel, Celeste, Elle and Lorenzo; and great grand-daughter, Emily.
