Etelvina Ferreira
1931-2020
It is with great sadness that the family of Etelvina Prazeres
da Silva Ferreira announce her peaceful passing at the Dr. Everett
Chalmers Hospital on April 9, 2020. Born in Portugal on
April 28, 1931 she was the daughter of the late Adéria
Augusta Ferreira and Porfírio da Silva Nunes
Gradim.
She was one of Jehovah’s Witnesses. Her strong
faith and love of Jehovah grounded her throughout her life and gave
her an enduring hope in the Bible’s promise of a
resurrection to life on a paradise earth free from sickness and
pain.
She will be lovingly remembered by her children, Carlos
Ferreira (Dawn) of Lakeville Corner, Rosa Ferreira Hensley of
Fredericton and Maria Ferreira of Lincoln; grandchildren, Jason
Clowater, Zachary, Jagger and Destiny Ferreira. She will be dearly
missed by all who knew her.
She is survived by her siblings Alice da Silva of Portugal,
Dalila Nunes (Hernani) and Adélio Gradim (Olivia) of Saint
John; several nieces and nephews.
Besides her parents, she was predeceased by her husband
Carlos Ferreira Sr. in 1998, and brothers Orlando, Ciro and
Daniel.
Special thanks to Dr. Jon Leclerc for his kind and
compassionate care as well as Brandi Labeurque for her endless
patience. Sincere thanks also to the Oromocto Extra-Mural
team as well as the DECH Palliative Care Unit who provided exceptional
care and compassion.
A private virtual memorial service will take place on June
27th. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations are appreciated
and may be made to the Lower Lincoln Cemetery, Oromocto SPCA or
charity of the donor’s choice through the Oromocto Funeral
Home.
