Artur D. Tavares

Artur and Maria were a sweet and special couple. They say “it’s all about the story”. Theirs was a very special story. Rest In Peace “Mr. T.”

To Artur family I’m so sorry for your loss, I always talked to your mom and dad at Christopher Heights. I was the Executive Chef when they first opened. I would see your parents every time I worked. Your dad always would meet me at the pub at 6:15 am to get his coffee and muffins. Boy did he love the muffins. I would tell him to take one to Mary, and at lunch your mom would always thank me. I even went to see your mom a couple of times when she went out to the first nursing home for rehab....

Deepest Sympathy to his entire family ❤

One of the most humble, kind, loyal, generous, loving man I have ever had the privilege to call my friend. Artur thank you for coming to see me everyday and putting a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing your love of Portugal with all of us. I will miss seeing you in the pub every morning reading your newspaper and doing your word puzzles. Your seat may be empty now, but our hearts are so full that your were apart of our lives. Rest in peace with your sweetheart Maria❤
Descanse em...

What a beautiful and lovingly written tribute to your Dad. Mabel and family, I am so sorry for your loss. May he fly high with your Mom. My deepest sympathies at this difficult time.

I only met this kind man one time. It was in my early twenties when Mabel invited us to her home to celebrate something. I spoke with Mabel's dad and we realized that there were very many similarities between my Mexican heritage and his Portuguese heritage. We were both so happy talking and sharing information. I was delighted when he invited me down to the basement to see where they made wine and where he hung the homemade sausage. I remember Mabel being very surprised that he invited me...
