No. But they do receive a pension.
Robin Ward - Anglican priest - was born in 1966.
Joseph Cassidy - Anglican priest - was born in 1954.
Priests do receive a stipend for each Mass they celebrate. The stipend is a token of thanks for the service rendered. In the past, when the clergy received no salary - this was their income. Today it is a supplement to the less than minimum wage salary they receive. Who, in honesty, could complain that a priest receives $5 a day for saying a Mass? $5 x 30 = $150 a month.
A stipend is an amount of money given to a priest on a regular schedule for living expenses. Stipends vary from diocese to diocese.
Catholic priests in the U.S. are paid an average yearly salary of $40,000 according to stats of Nov. 2010. In addition, a priest will receive rectory housing, healthcare, and a vehicle stipend. I will assume that a priest in Portugal will receive similiar salary depending on his order, education, and location of where he is assigned. And that salary would be in Euros.

Catholic and Anglican priests do not get a salary. In the Catholic Church they get an allowance - a small sum of money that is paid to them for personal use so that they do not have to work in a secular job for a living, but can devote their time to serving God, the parish and the Church. The sum is rather small as all their day-to-day living expenses (heat, light, a house to live in, domestic help, electricity, food etc) are met centrally. In the Anglican Church the priests get a stipend. This is a larger sum of money given to the priest so that, again, he (or she!) does not have to work in secular employment for a living, but again can devote their time to priestly duties. Because Anglican clergy can marry and have families, the practice of meeting all everyday expenses would be impractical. Instead, in addition to a stipend, the priest has the use of a house rent free, and certain expenses (such as local council tax based on the house, telephone and internet expenses needed for parish work, and some expenses to cover hospitality) are met centrally. However, because of the larger stipend, the Anglican priest meeds all the rest of his/her expenses (heat, light, food ets) out of his/her own pocket.
On September 18, 1896, Pope Leo XIII issued Apostolicae Curae, which was the papal bull on the Nullity of Anglican Orders (see link below). Thus, Anglican have no valid Orders and are unable to consecrate the Holy Eucharist. Notwithstanding that, an Anglican priest is not in communion with the Catholic Church and thus a Catholic priest would not be permitted to celebrate with them anyway.
The money given as a donation to a priest for performing any function such as a funeral is known as a stipend or stole fee.
The proper way to address a label for a retired priest would be "Reverend [First Name] [Last Name]." The title "Reverend" is appropriate for a retired priest as a sign of respect for their past role in the clergy.
Normal for that era and that country; she was an Anglican, the daughter of a wise - and moderate - Anglican priest.
