Maria Dos Santos Pina

Maria Dos Santos Pina (72) of Boston, Massachusetts passed away on December 3, 2025.

Maria Dos Santos Pina was born on February 8, 1953, in Fogo, Cape Verde to Antonio Dos Santos and Francisca Dos Santos.

In 2009, she came here with one minor child, carrying nothing but hope and the determination to reunite her family. She worked tirelessly to bring each of her children here, never complaining, always moving forward with love as her strength. She is admired for her calm spirit, her quiet grace, and the warmth she gave so freely. Wherever she went, she didn’t just walk into a room she lit it up. Her gentle humor, her kind heart, and her endless love touched everyone around her. She will always be loved, and her light will never fade.

Maria Dos Santos Pina is predeceased by her father Antonio Dos Santos and husband Pedro De Pina.

Maria Dos Santos Pina leaves behind to cherish her memory her mother Francisca Dos Santos, children Antônio Gonçalves, Helder Gonçalves, Carla Gonçalves, Ana Pina, Andir Gonçalves, Neusa Gonçalves, Betinho Gonçalves, Francisca Dossantos, Albertina Pina, 28 grandchildren, 20 great-grandchildren, siblings Manuel Santos, João Santos, Antônia Dossantos, Alina Dossantos, Lucilha Dossantos, Andre Dossantos, Fidelio Dossantos, Lucindo Dossantos, and a host of relatives and friends who will miss her dearly.
