Gregorio Saldana Jr., age 43, passed away on September 12, 2024, at the Malachi House after a long and difficult health battle. Born on November 15, 1980, in Geneva, Ohio, to the late Gregorio V. and Jacqueline Saldana, Gregorio was the youngest of four children and lovingly known as the baby of the family. He was the life of the party, with a contagious laugh and jokes that, while not always funny, made everyone laugh because they were his. Gregorio will be deeply missed by all who knew him.
He is survived by his three sisters, Kristi (Nick) Hall, Jolonda (Leeann) Nieves, and Maria (Jose) Manzanet; nine nieces and nephews; six great-nieces and nephews; and a host of friends and family. He was preceded in death by his parents.
As per his wishes, there will be no public services.
