What a beautiful family and home Mr. Santillan built. There is always such love and kindness in his home. His daughter has blessed me with a true friendship for a very long time – a tribute to his values. God Bless You All. With love, Kim
Mr Santillan, Kim and I were saddened to hear of your passing but are glad you are no longer suffering. I remember all that you and Mrs. Santillan did for me when I was a teenager providing me with food and a welcome place to come visit. Kim and I will always cherish the memory of how after attending our wedding you treated us as one of your own family and included us in the after wedding meal. On the few visits we were able to make over the years we were always welcomed into your home. May the Lord bless you and keep you in your first Easter celebration in his kingdom. Love, Lonnie and Kim McClelland
I apologize that this has come so late; however, I just now learned of Mr. Santillan's unfortunate passing. Paul, you have been a friend, teacher, mentor, and part of a wonderful support system for many years. I appreciate all that you have taught me, academically and otherwise. I am certain that your father is very proud of you and the rest of his family. I am so very sorry that I did not know of his passing in time to have attended the services. You and your family will always be in my thoughts and prayers.
The Hoffman family expresses our sincere condolences to the entire Santillan family with whom we have shared many happy moments. May you all find comfort in Christ's light this easter season and know that the Lord is with you as Raymond is with Him, sitting behind a desk in the living room reading a book. Peace be with you.
We're very sorry to hear about Mr. Santillan's death. He no longer has to suffer and he will be missed.
I had only met Mr. Santillan on a few occasions… but I consider his daughter Deborah and grandson Gabriel to be like family. My thoughts and prayers are with all the family. Sincerely Tim Yates
Debbie and I have been dear friends for such a long time that my family is like hers and her family is like mine. I remember Mr. Santillan as being a devoted husband, father and grandfather. He loved his family and life. May God give you peace knowing that Mr. Santillan still has a watchful eye on his family. I love you all.
My family and I would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to the Santillans. Raymond, who I met on many occasions as a child at the church, was a pillar, a mainstay of our life experiences within the church. We grew up with his children there. My mother, who herself just recently passed, was also a member of the church and she and Raymond and his family go way back. I'm certain she would have been grieved at his passing and would have wanted the family to know.
I was so saddened to hear about Ray's passing, but I know that he is no longer suffering. He is up in Heaven with his brother. I am sure that they are watching down on all the rest of the two Santillan families. I love you all dearly & know that I am there in spirit, since I will not be able to attend the services. May God hold you close at this time & may you all be strong.
Dear Paul and the Santillan family, My deepest condolences to you all during what I know is such a difficult time. I know how proud your father was of his family, and indeed, your care for him during the past year has been extraordinary. You are very much in my thoughts and prayers. Much love, Rebecca
