Santa Samaniego Hernandez-Munson

Went home to be with her Lord and Savior on February 1, 2025, from Toni & Trish House at the age of 79 years. The daughter of the late Daniel and Francis Samaniego Hernandez, Santa was born on December 30, 1945, in Saginaw. She graduated from Merrill High School. Santa had a servant's heart, working as a caregiver for Primary Home Care for 25 years. Even beyond her work, she found great joy in taking care of others. Santa married Ronald Munson on May 18, 2019. He predeceased her on October 17, 2021.

Santa's faith was at the center of her life. She was very involved in her church, Sheridan Road Baptist. She cleaned, partook in Bible study and every Saturday she could be found at the women's group, the Lady's Tri Cap. Santa also devoted her time to soul winning for the church: going door to door to spread the good news of the gospel.

Surviving are four children; Donald Fellman, Daniel Fellman, Christina (Johnny) Madrid, and Tanya (Steve) Nielsen; grandchildren: Johnny, Aaron, Jordan, Mariah, Shon, Christian, Selena, Annalicia, Destiny, Dallas, Kayden, and Zena; 24 great-grandchildren; siblings: Gloria, Dora and Juan, as well as many nieces, nephews and other relatives.

Along with her husband and parents Santa was predeceased by her siblings: Delma, Minerva, and Jose.

Funeral service will be held 2:00 pm on Thursday, February 6, 2025, at Sheridan Road Baptist Church, 6911 Sheridan Rd. Saginaw. Pastor Keith Williams will officiate. Honoring Santa's wishes cremation will take place following the service. Friends and family will be received at the church on Thursday from 10:00 am until the time of service. Those planning an expression of sympathy may wish to consider Toni and Trish House. Arrangements entrusted to W. L. Case and Company Funeral Directors.
