In Loving Memory of our

Beloved

Paul Santos Marquez

January 20, 1971 - November 1, 2026

It is with great profound sadness to announce the passing of Paul Santos Márquez. He was not only a brother, cousin, nephew, grandson, or friend. He was an enigma to be reckoned with. His infectious smile, gritty lifestyle, and powerful presence was something to admire and behold. The immense love he had for his mother, father, brothers, and children, was the same love he had for his friends. God almighty blessed our Santos with gifted hands. His artistry was not only limited to paintings or drawings. A sculptor, a pugilist, and a repairman, we're just a few of the qualities he possessed. Being taught by our wonderful parents to always love, protect, and cherish each other was something we have never forgotten. Our bond will never be broken and will miss him dearly. There are no words for the pain and hurt we are experiencing. But with the presence of God almighty, our hearts are filled with joy and light knowing he is cradled in the arms of my father, grandparents, and our entire family awaiting us in heaven. Paul Santos is survived by his amazing, strong, compassionate, beloved mother, Antonia Arias Marquez. His brothers George Eddie Villegas, Frank Patrick, Jaime Luis, Steve, and Alberto Marquez, and his beautiful children, Brittni Alexandra, John Paul Santos (J.P.), and Diego Alejandro Marquez and widow Michelle Acosta. He is preceded in death by his father Francisco Hernandez Marquez and grandparents. A special acknowledgement and sincere gratitude to his Uncle and Aunt Ernesto and Ester Fernandez for their undying love for our Santos. Paul Santos will be enormously missed but definitely never forgotten. Until we meet again brother.
