Humberto was born in Capelas, Sao Miguel, Azores, Portugal. In his early 20s, he purchased his own dairy business. Soon after he married his wife and started a family. He immigrated to Canada in 1966 where he was employed as a meat cutter and at times worked two full time jobs. Humberto’s family always came first; he was a dedicated husband, father, and grandfather. He liked to keep active by taking care of his vegetable garden, keeping his yard well groomed, and making his traditional Portuguese wine. He also enjoyed walking to all his destinations, whether it was doing errands or visiting family and friends. He will be missed by all the people whose lives he touched.
