It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Maria Celeste Henriques, on January 21, 2026 at the age of 92, after battling Cancer.

A devoted wife to the beloved late husband, Antonio P. Henriques, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, she took pride in her family with boundless generosity and love.

She is survived by 3 children, Yvonne Hircock, Antonio Henriques, daughter in-law Barbara, and David Henriques, 3 grandchildren, Victoria, Jennifer and Jacqueline, and 1 great grandchild Isabelle.

Maria's greatest gift was her strength and generosity. She was grateful for her loving and supportive sisters Angela, departed Linda, Lucy, and Ariete throughout. She was also grateful for many dear friends.

She was supportive, kind, tenacious, energetic, a fashionista, passionate throughout her life and always took great pride in her garden and flowers.

She will be very dearly missed, and may she rest in peace.
