It is with regret that I must report the passing of Santos H. Mendoza, a local hang glider pilot and instructor, and a past member of CHGPA and MHGA beginning in 1980. Santos passed away on Friday, November 27, after a courageous battle with congestive heart failure. He is survived by his partner Gail Bell, his daughter Nichohl, son-in-law Christopher Wise, his grandson Jeremy, his two granddaughters Patricia and Susai of Staten Island, NY, and two stepsons, Joseph and Antonio Rivera.
Friends and family are gathering to honor his life on Saturday December 5th, 2009, at 2:00pm, at the Celebration Center for Spiritual Living, located at 2840 Graham Rd, Falls Church, VA, 22042, (703-560-2030).
In lieu of flowers, donations in his memory may be made to the Celebration Center for Spiritual Living for the Mendoza-Wise Family Fund at the address above.
Sincerely,
Mike Norman
