Esmeraldo Ramos Santos

In Loving Memory of Esmeraldo Ramos Santos

Born August 9, 1933 – Macalaot, Cabatuan, Philippines

Esmeraldo lived a full and remarkable life, guided by love, faith, and dedication. He proudly served 20 years in the U.S. Navy, leaving behind a legacy of honor and hard work. A devoted husband to Lester, with whom he shared an unwavering love, and a caring father to Elmer, Leslie, and Lori, he was the heart and anchor of his family.

He embraced his role as father-in-law with the same love and generosity, welcoming his son-in-law Jim and daughter-in-law Larvi as his own.

He found joy in traveling, fishing, and the excitement of the casino, but his greatest happiness came from the moments spent with his family. Esmeraldo was blessed with 8 grandchildren—Chloe, Paige, Jacob, Shantel, Blake, Alexis, Lanae-Arabelle, and Evander-Lukas—and 5 great-grandchildren who brought him endless pride and joy.

His warmth, humor, and kindness touched everyone around him.

Esmeraldo’s love and memory will continue to live on in the hearts of his family and friends forever.
