Obituary of Tony Santiago

Antonio "Tony" Santiago

December 13, 1972 – March 8, 2025

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Antonio "Tony" Santiago, who left us on March 8, 2025, at the age of 52. Tony was born on December 13, 1972, in Atlantic City, New Jersey, and he spent much of his life making lasting memories with his family and friends.

Tony worked as a glass grinder at Chem Glass for many years, but he will be remembered most for the love and laughter he brought to those around him. A devoted father, grandfather, uncle, cousin, friend and fiancé to Tracy Trout, he cherished his time with his children, Kevin Santiago, Jessica Santiago, and Alyvia Santiago; as well as his grandson, Gavin Santiago. He was a source of strength and joy for his mother, Josefina Santiago-Echevarria; his brothers, Jose Santiago Jr. and Angel Rodriguez; and his sister, Maria Cartagena. Tony was preceded in death by his father, Jose Santiago; and his sister, Lucia Diaz.

Tony had a great love for the Philadelphia Eagles, and his passion for the team was infectious. Above all, he was known for his humor, warmth, and the deep affection he shared with all who knew him. He touched many lives and will be greatly missed.

A viewing will be held on March 17, 2025, from 10:00am until 11:00am, followed by a service at 11:00am at DeMarco- Luisi Funeral Home, 2755 S. Lincoln Ave., Vineland. Burial will follow at Siloam Cemetery 550 N. Valley Ave. Vineland.

Tony's memory will live on in the hearts of his loved ones, and his legacy of laughter and love will never be forgotten.
