Barbara Ann Santiago

With heavy hearts we announce the passing of our beautiful mother, Barbara Ann Santiago, on June 25, 2024, at the age of 62.  She was born and raised in Dover, Delaware and retired from the State of Delaware.

Barbara is deeply mourned by her significant other of twenty three years, Mike Haddadin. She was a devoted mother to her children, Amy(Martin) Davis, Mikey(Jen) Santiago, Tony Santiago; and a loving grandmother to her grandchildren, Mia Davis, Elianna Davis, Mason Davis, Kaileigh Santiago, Dakota Santiago.

Barbara was preceded in death by her mother, Helen Berwald, father, Arthur Berwald, sister, Debbie Diaz, and brother, Doug Berwald.

Our mother was dedicated to her grandchildren, absolutely loved the beach, enjoyed baking and cooking, and took pleasure in gardening. She loved to spoil her dog, Atlas, and treated him like he was her baby.
