We said goodbye to an amazing woman on Saturday October 25, 2025 at Middlesex Terrace Lodge; our Mother, our Grandmother, our Great Grandmother, Deolinda Rodrigues in her 96th year. She was strong willed, tough as nails and she loved her family more than anything. Loving mother of Ilda (Jose), Manuel (Raquel), Antonio(Madalena), Ramiro(Tereza), Jose(Laurinda), Fatima(Alfredo).
She will be deeply missed by her 14 grandchildren and her 20 great grandchildren, with one more arriving soon. Predeceased by her Husband Manuel (1974), three grandchildren, Rolando, Silvia, and Clara. Deolinda was the last of her generation, and the last of her family.
Our family meant the world to her and she was always the happiest when we all got together. It is hard to believe she is gone but we know she will be with us forever in everything we do. Rest peacefully.
