It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Pasquale “Pat” Santucci Jr., who tragically lost his life in an accident in Florida on November 5, 2025. Pat, beloved husband of Samantha Santucci and devoted father to their children, leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness, and unwavering devotion to his family.
Born in Des Plaines, Illinois, Pat grew up surrounded by family, friends, and a strong sense of community. He carried those values throughout his life, always striving to uplift those around him with his humor, generosity, and warmth. Pat’s enthusiasm for life was evident in every aspect—from his dedication to family, to his love of sports, music, and the outdoors, to the countless moments of joy he shared with friends and loved ones.
Pat was a devoted husband, whose love for Samantha was unwavering, and a father whose heart was fully invested in his children. Those who knew him remember his calm strength, his laughter, and the quiet ways he made life brighter for everyone around him. His passing leaves a void that will be deeply felt by family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
A private memorial service will be held to honor Pat’s life and legacy. Friends and loved ones are encouraged to share their memories and celebrate the joy he brought into the world. The family asks for privacy and prayers as they navigate this immeasurable loss.
Pat’s life, though tragically cut short, will continue to inspire love, kindness, and the value of cherishing every moment. May he rest in eternal peace.
