Maria Ines Figueroa, 84, passed away in St. Augustine, FL on February 18, 2019. Born in Humacao, Puerto Rico to Jacinto Figueroa and Juana Velez. In 2000, Maria Ines “Ana” and her loving husband Jose decided to leave their beloved Puerto Rican home to move to Florida to live close to their children and grandchildren; loving and dedicated mother and wife, sweet and loving grandmother.
