Jose was a great friend and neighbor.  He would always be willing to loan a tool, offer to help, or just walk over to friendly chat about life in general.  He always waived and asked how we were doing.  I miss all the laughs we had about our football teams and I know he would definitely be proud of his this year.  Jose is truly missed by all of us.

Jose was one of the kindest people we have ever met.  He took care of my husband’s father and after his passing, looked in on my parents. He was an exceptional human being.  He will be missed.

This guy...he was such a good friend.  I bet he never met a stranger.  He treated everyone one of the seniors we served like his own.  He was compassionate,  understandging and always positive.  He was dependable, kind and literally the most productive guy to work alongside.  He knew how to laugh with you and at you if needed, he was a true team player.  He was a one of kind pal and co-worker.

Today I woke up and  realize this is real. You won’t be walking in the door he won’t be saying hey how are you? How’s it going? What’s going on? 
I will miss our phone calls, and our conversations, and all your words of wisdom.  I promise I’ll take care of Mom and Tobi. Rest easy and know that you will be truly missed.  Forever in our hearts.

I met Jose ( Carlos) in 2013. He was my work “boo”. Totally accepted by both of our spouses. lol. I never saw him without a smile. We laughed throughout the entire day about anything. I will miss you, my friend. You have left a huge  impression on everyone lucky enough to know you. Rest easy, Carlos!

Jose was one of the nicest person you can ever meet, knew him for many years and he was always the same person since the first day I met him, alway smiling, going out of his way to make you feel at home. I was the maid of honor for Myrna in there wedding. I’m happy I got to spend your last birthday on earth with you. Love you Jose, you will be missed dearly my brother but not forgotten ever.😢😢

Rest in peace my brother Jose love you always

Love always stays strong u were an amazing husband god bless you always and forever

The time we shared jose would never be forgotten u were an amazing man and brother u will forever be missed and loved

José and I have known each other for several years. Although we did not keep in touch often I had the pleasure of working with him most recently and had many conversations about spirituality. He is now enlightened, however he will be deeply missed. Thank you, Jose for touching so many hearts including mine.

I met Jose in 2015 here at Mercedes-Benz of Melbourne. Through the next 11 years and 4 straight leases I have developed a wonderful friendship with Jose and his lovely wife Myrna. He always wanted her to have the best, and I always saw it in his face when she finally drove off the lot. He was proud of her. Jose was a patient man and understanding guest. But don’t mistake that for making sure he received the best deal. We enjoyed our grind to get to the bottom line that made sense for everyone. He will be missed on a business level, and far more importantly on a friendship level. Rest in Peace. Will always make sure to take care of Myrna here at the Dealerhsip.

Jose was a great friend of mine from  From high school in Massachusetts ,always  Was very kind  and A great family man . MY heart goes out to his family,  I will never forget him. Rest well my friend.

Jose was a good friend. Over the years we shared many laughs and worked side by side during the rough days of COVID. I could always count on Jose both at work and in my personal life. He touched so many lives during his short time on earth. His smile will live on forever. Our last conversation was how much I appreciated him and everything he did for me. I didn’t know that would be our last conversation.  When we meet again I will bring your favorite pizza.

I had the pleasure of working with Jose! Everytime I saw him he had a huge smile and when I asked how he was doing his response was always the same “ GREAT”  He will be missed by many!

Happy to celebrate your last birthday here on earth together. May you rest in Peace Jose G Santana

Jose, you left too soon, and will never be forgotten. 
This picture was on December 2024, at a beach restaurant in Isabela PR…you were so happy to have those Puertorican beans. Erik and I shared great memories. RIP Jose

I had the pleasure of knowing Jose when he would come out to our home to help with home projects. He always had a smile and words of wisdom.  He was always very positive. I will miss him.

Jose, How lucky I am to have  had something that makes saying goodbye to you so hard. Friendship is a bond that even with your death will never separate us, as you will forever live within my heart. It is time to rest now my friend, you earned it. I will see you at the Weathervane for seafood my dear friend! Kathy

Had the pleasure of if working with him such a great guy so sorry for you loss

Jose was a good friend and work colleague for many years. He will be sorely missed by everyone. Thank you for your help in so many ways. Rest in peace, my friend.
