Agostinha Rocha Obituary (1940 - 2026) - Attleboro, Massachusetts

Agostinha “Tinha” Rocha, 85, of Attleboro MA, passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 6, 2026, at Life Care Center of Attleboro. Born on July 28, 1940, in Ribeira Brava, Madeira Portugal, she was the daughter of the late Jose Rodrigues Serradas and Jesuina dos Santos. She was the youngest of seven siblings. She had been happily married to Romano Rocha for 65 years until his passing in May 2025. After leaving her homeland with her family in 1968, she immigrated to the United States and settled in Attleboro, MA. She proudly became a United States citizen in 1999 and advocated the importance of citizenship. Tinha was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend. She enjoyed gardening, cooking, sewing and family time. She would always have an amazing vegetable garden to share with family and friends. Most of all, Tinha cherished her family and was the family patriarch that coordinated all the family gatherings throughout the year. She is survived by her son, Jose Rocha and his wife, Glenda of Norton; her daughter, Maria Rocha-Hazard and her husband, Timothy of Attleboro. She was the proud grandmother to Nicholas Hazard of Attleboro, Justin Hazard of Manville, RI, Joseph Rocha of Bronx, NY, Michael Rocha of Norton, great granddaughter to Hayden Hazard of Manville, RI and several nieces and nephews. She was also preceded by her beloved seven siblings. While we mourn the loss of her presence, we remember her strength, her infectious laughter, her green thumb and her love of family. The family takes comfort that she is reunited with her husband, siblings and parents once again. Tinha’s family would like to express their heartfelt gratitude for the support and love they have received. They are appreciative of the care and services received from the medical staff of Sturdy Memorial Hospital, Life Care Center of Attleboro and Hope Health Hospice & Palliative Care. The services will be private under the care of Duffy-Poule Funeral & Cremation Services, 20 Peck Street, Attleboro, MA on June 28, 2026. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Tinha’s memory to Hope Health Hospice & Palliative Care.
