It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of Mr. Pablo Santos, age 42, a devoted husband, loving father, and faithful servant of the Lord. Pablo lived his life with a hardworking spirit, always striving to provide for his family and give them the very best of himself. His dedication was matched only by the kindness he showed others and the gentle strength he carried into every part of his life. Mr. Santos passed away Tuesday, November 18, 2025.

Pablo found joy in the simple, beautiful things—quiet mornings on the water with a fishing rod in hand, the peacefulness of nature, and the animals he loved so deeply. He could never get enough fresh fruit or ice-cold water, and he cherished time spent with the people who mattered most. Whether gathered with family or laughing with friends, Pablo's presence brought warmth, generosity, and an unmistakable light.

Those who knew him will remember him as a true giver—selfless, compassionate, and always ready to help anyone in need. As a husband, he was devoted and tender. As a father, he was patient and proud. And above all, Pablo was a man who loved Jesus with his whole heart and was a member of Dexter Baptist Church. His faith shaped the way he lived and the way he loved.

Though our hearts are broken, we take comfort in knowing that Pablo is now whole, healed, and in the arms of his Savior. His legacy of love, faith, and kindness will live on in all who were blessed to know him.

Forever in our hearts, until we meet again.

Pablo leaves behind to cherish his memory, his wife, Lynda Santos; two sons, Jose Luis Santos and Pablo Santos, Jr.; his mother, Fransisca Santos; many brothers and sisters; his heart-child, Lynnox Hope Lake and his in-laws, Maria Sauceda, Gertrudis Sauceda and Paloma Sauceda.

Funeral services will be held at 3:00 P.M., Monday, November 24, 2025 at Dexter Baptist Church with Rev. Jeremiah Sluss and Moises Sanchez officiating. Burial will follow at the Dexter Baptist Church Cemetery.

The family will receive friends from 2:00 PM until 3:00 PM, Monday at Dexter Baptist Church.

Pallbearers will be Matt Lake, Bennett Lake, Keaton Lake, William Ramirez, Scott Johnson, Joel Sluss and Michael Mahalik.
