Pedro Manuel Redondo, 60 years young, passed away Wednesday, May 11, 2022. He was born in Portugal, son of the late Americo and Maria (Povoa) Redondo, and gained his United States citizenship on July 5, 1977.
He was a happy positive guy who loved people, he was truly the life of the party. Pedro always had a smile on his face and made friends easily. He was a music enthusiast and enjoyed supervising and admiring any construction sites that you would happen upon on any day.
Pedro was cared for and loved by the many staff who worked with him throughout the years at Seven Hills Community services and his day program The Nemasket Group. Pedro loved to work and help people, he also loved to dance, attend concerts, movies, and the theater. Pedro especially enjoyed spending time with his friend and guardian Michael. Pedro was the epitome of strength, he beat cancer twice, as his outlook was always positive and happy.
He lived a wonderful life where he got to experience everything he loved, from attending Patriots games, to going to Digger land in New Jersey and driving construction vehicles. Pedro would always be seen at dances, parades, and outdoor celebrations of any type. Pedro will be sincerely missed and will forever be remembered for his beautiful engaging smile and his warm greeting of all who knew him. Pedro viewed all people as friends he had not met yet.
