Raymond C. Faria, 69, of Riverside RI, passed away Tuesday, March 25, 2025, at home, surrounded by his family.
He was the longtime partner of Clara Marrocco, whom he first met 25 years ago during the Santo Christo Feast.
Born in St. Michael, Azores, he was a son of the late Manuel Faria and Maria Carreiro Faria.
Raymond worked as a driver for Dunkin' Donuts, until his retirement. Outside of work, he was a member of the Fall River Sports Club, where he enjoyed spending time with friends. Raymond had a love for games, often gathering with family and friends to play cards and dominoes, which brought him much joy. A passionate sports fan, he was an avid supporter of the New York Giants and the Yankees, always eager to cheer them on. He also loved the water, going on rides with Clara, and listening to music. Most of all, he enjoyed spending time with his family, especially his grandchildren.
Along with Clara, he is survived by his children Sonia Costa, Carlos Faria, and Jennifer Faria; his siblings Maria Marques, Norberto Faria, Carlos Faria, Durval Faria, and Oliveira Faria; his grandchildren Ashton, Alendra, and Liliana; several nieces and nephews.
