Rosa Pinto

Rosa Pinto, 69, passed away on September 2, 2026, having battled an aggressive illness for almost two years. Her love of life and family drove her to exceed one prognosis after another to enjoy moments of peace, joy and good company in between. We thank God, as well as doctors, nurses and medical staff who helped her meet her goals and attempts to say farewell on her own terms. A selfless warrior, she fought for life and to give us the comfort of her company to the very end. 

Rosi was born in the mountains of Peru, later studying and living in Lima where she graduated first in her class with a degree in Chemical Engineering from Universidad Nacional Mayor de San Marcos. She obtained a Master’s degree at the University of Ferrara and worked in Italy before joining her husband in the US to start a family. She found reliable and gainful employment through the US Postal Service and was a proud and loyal employee for over 25 years, including sending all mail and packages exclusively through USPS. She also started a small business with her daughter to make healthy keto gluten-free cakes.
