Condolences

Mrs Santory, Eggie, Kiko and Jeannie- I am sorry it took so long for me to send my condolences. We were traveling and did not hear the news until after the funeral. Mr Santory will be missed. He was a special person to me as a young man working for him at the commissary and he was a special man to my Mom and Dad, Lucy and Manuel Vazquez. He had a heart as big as all of PR and a sense of humor that lit up any house he went to. We still cherish his video from Thanksgiving at my house when my Dad was sick and all the wonderful Christmas dances and songs he would lead. He will always live in the Vazquez family memories. We loved him. If we can do anything at all, please do not hesitate to call.

With Love- Jorge De La Rosa

Dear Mrs. Santory,

Please accept my sincerest condolences on the loss of you husband. I have very fond memories of him and I working together at McKay Hardware. He was a very thoughtful and generous man. I have never forgotten that he always brought me coffee and every once in awhile a biscuit to go along. He was an inspiraation to all seniors to stay in shape, as well as the young. I will forever remember his beautiful flowers, especially the zinnia's that grew to be 4-5ft tall.
Please know that you and your family are in thought and prayer and may the peace of Christ be with you through this difficult time.
Love,
Jolene Cave

To Liana and my cousins,
I just want to tell you how much it hurt to hear of my Uncle's passing and will always remember the times he came to New York to visit us. He always was so close to his family. I am truly grateful that I was able to see him for New Years in Puerto Rico in 2006-2007 and know in my heart how much fun he had being around his family. I will never forget all the stories he told us about the family when they were young as he gave me an education into the Santory family.
He will be missed by my father Ramon and all his brothers and his remaining sister but will never be forgotten. Thanks Salvador for those lasting memories.

Your nephew Obdulio Santory(JUGY)

Mi hermano querido siempre fuiste muy especial para mi. Siempre admiraste nuestros esfuerzos de superacion en la vida. Que Dios te acoja en su santo seno, descansa en paz y que si alguna cuenta tenias que saldar con El Redentor nuestras oraciones serviran de aliento para el perdon de algun pecado. Nunca te olvidare y te llevare en mi mente y corazon. Cuando El Creador disponga nos reuniremos a saborear la vida eterna.

Kiko, Jeannie, Eggie and Titi Liana:
I remember Tio Salvador as one of the few in the family who inspired the importance of education and celebrated the small steps we took toward that goal. He was really awared of what was going on in Puerto Rico with his nephews and always found the way to recognize those efforts via a post card or a telephone call. I will have him alive with my kids as role model of discipline and respect.

God Bless You All!

Dear Santory Family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Santory. He was a great man, a great American, and someone we always looked up to as kids. Even though the years have passed and I've been gone for so long, he'll always be running on the streets of Rivers Edge in my memories.
