Maria Alberto
She leaves behind a legacy of warmth and kindness
We bid farewell to Maria Alberto, a true beacon of light and love, who departed peacefully in her sleep on Wednesday August 28, 2024, after battling Alzheimer’s for many years.
Maria was born on September 4, 1938 in Montevideo, Uruguay, where she later met her beloved husband, Carlos Alberto. Over their 61 years of marriage, they built new roots in East Boston, had two children, six grandchildren, five great-grandchildren, and lived a life full of lasting memories.
Maria walked through life with a gentle strength, touching the lives of everyone she encountered with unforgettable grace. She devoted her time to her family, who fondly called her Nona. Maria was known for her fashion, from her stylish hair to her flashy jewelry to her bright colored outfits. She loved her sweets and made a wonderful arroz con leche and flan. A lover of music and dance, Maria was known for captivating friends and family by dancing tango with her husband. Maria had a contagious smile and always found beauty in life’s simple moments and encouraged us all to do the same.
Maria is survived by her husband, Carlos Alberto, her daughter, Mariela LoGrasso and her husband, Oscar Fernandez, her son, Carlos Alberto Jr. and his wife, Jackie Alberto. Maria is also survived by six grandchildren: Anthony and his wife, Antonella, Charlie and his wife, Kathryn, Rosanna and her husband, Joseph, Ceeva, Tyler and Bella and her great-grandchildren Avianna, Alessandra, Hailey, Joseph Jr. and Thomas.
Maria leaves behind a legacy of warmth and kindness. She will forever be remembered and missed. Sigue bailando y sonriendo nuestra querida Nona.
