My deepest condolences to the Correiro family during this difficult time. Many of my childhood memories include spending time with my cousins at Vavo Esmeria's home. She was a beautiful person and will be missed. Debbie Allen & Family - Posted by: Debbie Allen (Extended family) on: Jan 02, 2018

I am very sorry for your loss. Losing a mother is one of the greatest losses human can go through, no matter how old they are. My mother was a childhood friend of your mom, and they loved each other. My mom died Dec 27 1995 at the age of 58 and every time I saw your mom she always told me about their friendship, and how my mom helped her with her young children before she went to Brasil. Your mama was a sweet woman with a heart of gold and i know of how much she went through in this life. She died 22 years and one day after my mama and I know they are embracing each other in heaven. My love to all the children and family and I know how much you will all miss her, as there isn't a day that I don't miss my mama - no matter how many years go by. You are in our thoughts and prayer - family Calisto - Posted by: Eddie Calisto-Tavares (Daughter or your mom childhood friend ) on: Jan 02, 2018
