Maria Santiago Paulino

WORCESTER-Maria A. Santiago Paulino, 56, was born to parents Felix and Maria Santiago on July 14, 1961 in the Dominican Republic. On Wednesday, November 1, 2017 she left behind her loving husband of 36 years, Fausto Paulino and three children; Ernesto, Alberto and Masielle Paulino, her siblings, Ediberto, Luis, Roberto, Diogenes and Alexis, Gladys, Raquel and Yuberkys, and many nephews and nieces.

She was the light of the party. Her red lips, fabulous fashion and unmistakable voice could fill any room with joy. She lived for celebrations and was the definition of living life to its fullest.

Visiting hours will be held Sunday, November 5 from 3:00 until 6:00 pm in the funeral home. A funeral will be held on Monday, November 6 from Callahan Fay & Caswell Funeral Home, 61 Myrtle Street with a Mass at 10:00 am in the Cathedral of St. Paul, 15 Chatham Street. Burial will be private.

If her parting has left a void, then fill it with remembered joy. A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, a strong cocktail and her red lips.
