Maria C. Medeiros, 67, of HudsonHudson – Maria C. Medeiros, 67, of Hudson, passed away peacefully at home, with her loving family by her side, on June 14, 2021 after a period of declining health. She was the beloved wife of Daniel Medeiros. They were married for 30 years.

Born in Santa Maria, (Azores) Portugal. Maria found herself a new home, immigrating to Hudson in June 1976 where she spent the remaining years of her life. She was a long-time member of the Hudson Portuguese Club, where you could find her enjoying the music and food at many feasts, including the Holy Ghost Festival.

Maria’s passion was spending time with her family and friends that she cared so deeply for. Her charismatic personality and witty sense of humor always shined through. She had a love for eating fresh fish and very often anticipated when her brother, José would be calling her saying he had caught fish after his day out by the ocean. Most days, Maria adored her time chatting it up on the phone due to long distance, like a couple schoolgirls with her sister, Ludovina, cracking up jokes and making each other laugh.

In addition to her husband, Daniel, Maria is survived by her three children, Anibal Melo, Betty M. Melo, and Antonio Melo, all who reside in Hudson; five grandchildren, Antonio E. Melo, Stephan C. Melo, Aryana Melo, Antonio F. Melo Jr., and José A. Melo; her sister, Ludovina Braga and her husband Manuel Braga of Canada; her brother, José M. Freitas and his wife Fatima Freitas of Hudson; and many loving nieces, nephews and friends. Along with her parents, she was also predeceased by three siblings, Maria Celestina de Freitas Puim Coelho, Filomena de Freitas, and Anibal Freitas.

Maria will be dearly missed by many.

A period of visitation will be held on Saturday, June 19, from 9-11 a.m., at Tighe Hamilton Regional Funeral Home, 50 Central St., Hudson, followed by a procession to Forestvale Cemetery for an 11:30 a.m. graveside committal service.
