Aggie will be deeply missed by family to include but not limited to her surviving sisters Margaret, Maria Lidia, Laura and brother Osvaldo; her nieces Lidinha, Agueda, Sofia, Rita, Christine, and Maggie; her nephews Ze’ (predeceased), Roberto, Daniel, George, Richard. Shad, and Rodrigo. She also leaves behind close and special New Jersey and Florida friends that she loved and cherished and were all a big part of her and Anthony’s life.
