Fatima was born in Ponta Delgada, Portugal on the island of San Miguel on February 17th, 1947 to her parents Iduina and Joseph Andrade. She married and moved to the United States in 1967 with her son Timothy and had two more daughters Suzanna and Michelle while residing in Alaska. In 1970 she received her naturalization as an American citizen and pursued a career in cosmetology. In March 1981 she met the man of her dreams, Kenneth J. Reed Jr. from Fall River, Massachusetts. They wed on the 3rd of September 1982 and lived a life of love and adventure until sudden sickness took her away on the 12th of January 2019.
She is survived by her spouse Ken; son Timothy; and daughters Suzanna and Michelle, as well as 5 grandchildren, and three great grandchildren. Fatima touched the life of everyone who knew her. She had a heart that accepted everyone and always made room in her home and at the table for one more. The family would like to recognize the tremendous efforts and exceptional care of the medical team at the Mayo clinic and we endorse them as a worthy recipient of any charitable donations you may wish to make.
