Edwin Santos, Jr. Obituary

Edwin M. Santos Jr. passed away peacefully at home, surrounded by his loving family on Thursday, December 10, 2020.  He was the eldest son of the late Edwin M. Santos Sr. and the late Etelvina (Gomes) Santos and beloved husband of the late Cynthia Santos. 

Edwin who was affectionately known as Junior served in the US Army as a Special Forces Green Beret Paratrooper in communications and was a proud United States Veteran.  Junior lived life to the fullest, nonchalantly embracing all that it had to offer.  He will be remembered for his fearless nature, genuine love of family, his love of WWE Wrestling, collection of cowboy hats, his famous pot of cachupa, and countless stories and memories.

He was and will always be known as “the big brother” to his siblings, the late George Santos, Gloria, Manuel, Angelina (Lynn), and Steven Santos.  He also leaves behind his children Yolanda, Chontel, Constance, Kyle, Awan (Dee Dee), Carrie, and Trudy; as well as 7 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren. 

Junior was a beloved son, father, grandfather, nephew, uncle, cousin, and friend who will truly be missed beyond measure.
