John Santiago, 45, of Kingston, passed away suddenly on June 30, 2026.


Born on December 11, 1980, John was the beloved son of Carlos and Margaret (Jacob) Santiago.


John will be remembered for his adventurous spirit and the love he had for the simple joys in life. He especially loved fishing, where he found peace and happiness, and enjoyed traveling to new places whenever he had the opportunity. He was also passionate about boxing and appreciated the discipline and determination the sport represented.


Above all else, John loved his family. He was a husband, father, a cherished brother, a proud uncle, a loving cousin and nephew, and a loyal friend. Those who knew John will remember his smile, his sense of humor, and the deep love he had for the people closest to him. His presence touched many lives, and he will be greatly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.


John leaves behind a family who will forever treasure his memory and carry his love in their hearts. Though his time with us was far too short, the memories he created and the lives he touched will remain a lasting testament to the man he was.


May he rest in eternal peace
