Norberto Santiago Caraballo – Lawrence, MA
Norberto Caraballo Santiago passed away peacefully with the love of his family. Born in Arroyo, Puerto Rico, he was one of eleven children of the late Gonzalo and Felicita Santiago. A jolly and humble man with a big heart, he was known for his generosity, warm sense of humor, and deep love of family.
He is survived by his wife, Regalada Santiago; his sons Robert, Norberto, Alberto, and Alex Santiago; his stepdaughter Denise; his granddaughter Eveliza Santiago, who was the apple of his eye; and his great-grandchild Jarell.
Norberto will be remembered for his kindness, laughter, and the way he made those around him feel cared for. As Scripture says, “It is more blessed to give than to receive” (Acts 20:35). He lived those words every day.
May he rest in peace.
