Maria and Andre immigrated from Portugal and started their family together in North Vancouver. They moved to Penticton, where Maria had a career in laundry services at Penticton Regional Hospital. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends and was an amazing cook. You would never leave Maria’s house with an empty stomach! She also enjoyed traveling to Portugal to visit her brothers.
A private service will be held with plans for a celebration of life in the summer. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society in Maria’s memory.
