Life story

He was 75 when he passed but his spirit was always young. He lived life enjoying every moment to the fullest because he believed every moment was a blessing. He loved everyone, and did anything for anyone. When he walked into a room, you could say the sun was suddenly shining even on the most cloudy day. Everything about his presence radiated positivity and it was infectious.

He was a devoted husband to Emiliana Santos for 39 years, always very attentive to her.

A family man: raising six children, helping raise four grandchildren, and two great-granddaughters. He loved them greatly and taught them the best way to live life.
