Lina was a devoted mother to her three sons, a loving grandmother to her four granddaughters, and was well-respected by her three daughters-in-law.

They were joined by family members and eventually settled in Mississauga after 15 years in Toronto. Lina was deeply involved in the Portuguese Catholic Church (Christ the King) and volunteered at local hospitals, bringing comfort to patients. She worked in several industrial jobs and later as a house cleaner, taking great pride in her work.
