Dimas Santos Obituary
August 22, 1962 - March 31, 2025
Dimas Moniz Santos, 62, of Spotsylvania County, passed away Monday, March 31, 2025.
He was the owner of Azores Construction and was a beloved community member.
Dimas was born in Terceira, Azores, and immigrated to the United States in 1977. He was a master in his trade, and was known for his countless beautiful homes built across Virginia. Though he was small, he was mighty. He enjoyed playing his guitar, woodworking, and spending time with his family. He loved fiercely, and was a friend to anyone who met him.
Dimas is survived by his wife, Cynthia Santos; their children, Melissa, Cidália, Olive, and Ethan; his eight siblings, their spouses, and countless nieces and nephews.
He is preceded in death by his parents, Liduino and Zulmira Santos.
The family will receive friends and loved ones from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. Monday, April 7, 2025, at Found and Sons Funeral Chapel, 10719 Courthouse Road, Fredericksburg. A funeral service will begin at noon in the funeral home chapel. Interment will follow at his beautiful home in Spotsylvania, VA.
"Here comes the Sun, and I say, It's alright."

We are emphatic about your loss. We met Dimas in 2020 when he rescued our failing home improvement project. He was kind, understanding, and truly a master of his trade. He even brought his young son to work with him a few times.
Dimas created a house improvement that was way beyond our expectations. The world has lost a man that made a difference in our and many other lives.
Rest in Peace, Demas. You have touched so many lives, and we are lesser people without you.
