Support the Santiago Family in Their Time of Loss

Donation protected
Hello, our names are Briseida and Angel Santiago. Our father was unfortunately hospitalized for many weeks, leading to months. Due to his illness and complications, he passed away on 3/19/25. It has been a very hard time for us and our mother, who is currently unemployed due to providing care, comfort, and support for him during this time.

My father, Ernesto Santiago Cruz, was a very fun, lovable, caring father and husband. To anyone around him, he was a kind man and did his best to help anyone, whether it was family or friends.

Although we know he has gone to a better place and is finally resting, he has left a big absence in our lives and hearts.

During this hard time, we only ask for a prayer and your condolences. However, if you would like to donate and help us during this hard time for the costs of the funeral, burial, and viewing, we would be more than grateful and appreciative. This truly is a heartbreaking moment for all of us but our main goal is to be able to properly say our goodbyes and to send him off to his home country so the rest of his family back home can also have their closure.

Thank you so much for your time, prayers, shares, and donations.

Sincerely, the Santiago Family


Hola, nos llamamos Briseida y Ángel Santiago. Lamentablemente, nuestro padre estuvo hospitalizado durante varias semanas, lo que resultó en meses. Debido a su enfermedad y complicaciones, falleció el 19/3/25. Ha sido un momento muy difícil para nosotros y para nuestra madre, quien actualmente se encuentra desempleada debido a su dedicación a cuidarlo, consolarlo y apoyarlo durante este tiempo.

Mi padre, Ernesto Santiago Cruz, era un padre y esposo muy divertido, cariñoso y atento. Era un hombre amable y trabajador que hacía todo lo posible por ayudar a todos, ya fueran familiares, amigos o incluso desconocidos.

Aunque sabemos que se ha ido a un lugar mejor y finalmente descansa, ha dejado una gran ausencia en nuestras vidas y corazones.

En estos momentos difíciles, solo pedimos sus oraciones y sus condolencias. Sin embargo, si desean donar y ayudarnos con los costos del funeral, el entierro y el velatorio, les estaremos muy agradecidos. Este es un momento realmente desgarrador para todos nosotros, pero nuestro principal objetivo es poder despedirnos como es debido y enviarlo a su país de origen para que el resto de su familia en casa también pueda disfrutar de su viaje.

Muchas gracias por su tiempo, oraciones, por compartir y por sus donaciones.

- Atentamente, la familia Santiago
