1932 - 2024
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear mother, Circuncisao Catarino, on February 19th at the age of 91, surrounded by her family. She was cherished by her children, Liz and Tony (Cynthia). Survived by her brother Joaquim Morao (Ilda), nieces, nephews, extended family in both Canada and Portugal and many loving friends.
Circuncisao was born in Peso, Portugal on March 2, 1932. She trained and worked as a seamstress, and later met her loving husband Cesar. They married on August 4, 1963. Ce-Ce immigrated to Canada in 1964 to join Cesar and begin their new life together in Kitimat, BC, where they welcomed two children. In 1972 the family moved to Prince George to start a Property Management business. Family was everything in her life to the end and she cherished the time spent with her children, family and friends.
Ce-Ce will always be remembered as a warm, caring and loving mother who touched the lives of many. She enjoyed having friends and family over at the home and cooking for them. She took every opportunity to continue with her passion of sewing and crocheting. She also loved to garden and would plant an assortment of flowers and vegetables which kept her busy during the summer months.
Ce-Ce was predeceased by her husband, Cesar, her sister Rosette and parents, Ermelinda and Jose Pereira Morao.
Our family would like to express our gratitude to Dr. Saif and all the staff at Jubilee Lodge and Rotary Hospice House for all their care and compassion.
Prayers will be held at Sacred Heart Cathedral on Thursday February 29th at 7 pm. Funeral mass on Friday March 1st at 10 am.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Rotary Hospice House.
