It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Maria Santos, who died peacefully on July 23, 2025, at the age of 76. Maria was a devoted wife, loving mother, cherished grandmother, and beloved sister whose warmth and strength touched the lives of all who knew her.
Maria is survived by her husband, Augusto Santos, with whom she shared a lifetime of love and partnership. She was the proud mother of Joe Santos (Patti Santos) and Andre Santos (Kasey McNaughton), and a caring sister to Josepha Silva (Antonio Silva).
She was a devoted Avó to her grandchildren: Daniel Santos, Apollo Santos, Olivia Swanson, and Warren Swanson, each of whom brought her immense joy and pride.
Maria was predeceased by her parents, José Fernandes Pereira Oliveira and Maria das Dores Martins, and her brothers, Estevão Martins Oliveira and Domingos Martins Oliveira. Her memory will live on in the hearts of her family and all who were fortunate enough to know her.
