Marta Adeodata Pereira was born September 26, 1965 in Bella Horizante, Brazil. She was the daughter of Amador and Franeisca (Soares) Pereira. Marta was born and raised in Brazil. Her childhood years brought many life challenges, which made her strong and compassionate. In her late teen years, Marta started off on her own and she quickly became successful as a bank supervisor. At the age of 30, Marta came to America because she wanted more in life. She didn’t speak any English, yet she soon found work cleaning at a Burger King restaurant. Marta was driven and she quickly learned how to speak English. With her talent with computers and management, she soon found herself working as a legal secretary for two attorneys in Boston, MA. In 2002, Marta was united in marriage to Kent Wyatt in Rapid City. To this union was born a beautiful daughter named, Serenity Dawn. Together, Marta and Kent owned and operated Wyatt’s Hideaway Campground located near Belle Fourche. Marta was a huge reason for why the campground was successful. Her people skills and technology skills turned the location into a very popular Sturgis Rally campground. Marta lived out her faith at work, and at home. She was an excellent wife and mother, and she took extraordinary care of her family. She home-schooled Serenity and, as all good wives and mothers are, she was the heart of the home. Marta’s middle name means “Gift of God”, and that is truly who she was. She will be missed very much. Marta is survived by her husband Kent and daughter Serenity of Belle Fourche; her mother Franeisca Pereira of Bella Horizante Brazil; brother Elias (Nilce) Pereira of Bella Horizante, Brazil; sister Tania (Marcos) Mariano of Bella Horizante, Brazil; brother Elizeu (Patricia) Pereira of Bella Horizante, Brazil; brother Jamerson Pereira of Florida; and nieces and nephews. She is also survived by her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Edward and Gloria Wyatt of Rapid City. She was preceded in death by her father.
