Sylvia Theresa Arredondo Ramirez passed away on Sunday, March 31, 2019. She was born in Port Arthur, Texas on November 20, 1942. She lived in Texas her entire life but recently relocated to Phoenix, Arizona from Groves, Texas to be near family. Sylvia was a beloved teacher who taught for many years in the Port Arthur Independent School District as well as the Port Neches Groves Independent School District. Over the years, she enjoyed keeping up with her students and fellow teachers always anxious to hear news of their accomplishments.

She is preceded in death by her husband Alejandro (Alex) Valdez Ramirez and her brother Casey Arredondo. Sylvia is survived by her daughter, Sara (Sassy) Ramirez Abdo and husband Joseph as well as her brother James Hudson.
