Mementos

Kristin Silva Sweeney, 59, of Albuquerque, NM, passed away Thursday, May 23, 2019, surrounded by and in the arms of her loving family. Kris was a vivacious and powerful force; welcoming, magnetic, and inspiring. She loved classic rock, dancing, drawing, crosswords, big parties in her backyard, making DIY monstrosities, and most of all, spending time with and loving her family. Kris was born and raised in Las Cruces, daughter of Benjamin Silva Sr. and Norma Chavez Silva. In 1981, she moved to Santa Fe where she met the love of her life, her husband, David Sweeney. Partners for 32 years, Kris and David raised three daughters, Stephanie (Brent Freeman), Alexandra, and Audrey. Her girls were the light and pride of her life. The world is a less bright place without her. She is survived by her parents, her sister, Bridgett Silva Alvarez, her brothers, Benjamin Silva Jr. and Patrick A. Silva, and many nieces, nephews, and cousins. TQHLL “Te quiero hasta la luna.” Love you more. All Services will be held at St. Joseph On the Rio Grande Catholic Church, 5901 St. Josephs Dr, NW, Albuquerque, NM. on Wednesday, May 29th beginning at 8:15 am

I remember meeting Kris for the first time over 20 years ago, and I remember the last conversation we had. Conversations with Kris were always real and memorable, never just small talk. Business meetings were so much more fun when Kris was there. So many people relied on her knowledge and expertise, which were given freely no matter how busy she was. My deepest condolences to the Sweeney and Silva families. Kris loved you all so much.
