Hello everyone,
It is with the heaviest hearts that we share the passing of our beloved father, Rodeo Santos, who left us on May 21, 2025. Rodeo was a loving and cherished member of our family, and his sudden departure has left us devastated.
Rodeo spent 15 days in the Intensive Care Unit, fighting bravely for his life. Despite the dedication of the medical team, we sadly lost him. He had the maximum travel insurance available for visitors to Canada, but due to the severity and length of his hospitalization, those benefits have now been fully exhausted. Unfortunately, we are left with significant out-of-pocket expenses.
We are now facing not only the emotional weight of this loss, but also the urgent need to cover the remaining medical bills, funeral, and burial costs. We want to honor Rodeo’s memory with the dignity and farewell he deserves. He is a great husband, father, sibling, and grandfather.
We are humbly asking for your support to help us raise funds for:
• Medical expenses not covered by insurance
• Funeral service and burial expenses
• Any remaining debts related to his care
Any contribution—no matter how small—will mean so much to our family. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this campaign with others. Your kindness, prayers, and support are deeply appreciated during this difficult time.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
With love and gratitude,
Charito, May, Froilan and Ryan Santos
