Obituary

It is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Jose Santos, who left us peacefully at the age of 88 on October 28, 2024. Born in Fatima, Portugal in 1936, Jose was the beloved son of Antonio and Maria Inacia, who predeceased him. In 1963, Jose made the brave decision to emigrate to Canada, where he dedicated over 30 years of his life as a Cement Mason with Ontario Hydro. His commitment to his work was matched only by his devotion to his family.  Jose is survived by his loving wife, Lobelia, with whom he shared 60 wonderful years of marriage. He was a proud father to Helder (Jacynthe) and Emma (George), and the light of his life were his cherished grandchildren, Daniel, Sofia, and Lucas. His brothers, sisters-in-law, nieces, and nephews who will forever hold his memory in their hearts. A man of great passion, Jose loved tending to his vegetable garden, where he found joy in nurturing plants and sharing his harvest with neighbors. He was always ready to lend a helping hand. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him, but his spirit will live on in the hearts of his family and friends around the world.   In lieu of flowers, donations to the Canadian Cancer Society would be greatly appreciated.
