My Grandmother

I have been thinking of my Grandmother a lot lately.  This month marks 9 years since she passed away.  I decided to do a little genealogy this morning and I stumbled across the following.

Evete M. Rocha

Moved to Warren from Azores in '78

Evete M. Rocha, 60, of Greenway Drive died Saturday, Jan 23, 1999, at home. She was the wife of the late Horacio Medeiros. Born in Terceira, the Azores, a daughter of the late Edemundo and Maria (Souza) Rodrigues, she moved to the United States in 1978, settling in Warren. She lived there until moving to Bristol a short time ago. A homemaker, she was a member of the Warren Soccer Club and the Holy Ghost Society. She leaves three sons, Francisco Medeiros and Orlando Medeiros, both of Warren, and Horacio Medeiros of Bristol; two daughters, Lucie Medeiros and Natalia Medeiros, both of Bristol; two brothers, Edemundo Rodrigues and Henrique J. Rodrigues, both of the Azores; two sisters, Evanjelina Cunha of Canada and Maria N Rocha of Portugal, and nine grandchildren. Funeral services were held Tuesday from the William J Smith and Son Funeral Home in Warren, with a Mass of Christian burial in St. Mary of the Bay Church in Warren. Burial followed in St. Mary of the Bay Cemetery.
