Many hearts are breaking with the unexpected passing of Heather Capri Santana on Thursday, April 9, 2020, at the age of 39.

Heather is survived by a huge extended family and many friends from all walks of her life.  From the time Heather could walk she loved to chase butterflies, to dance and you could often find her clowning around with her “Omi” bringing smiles to many.  After high school, Heather went onto become a CNA and cared for many in ways many of us would find hard.  She also had a warrior spirit which often had her fighting for others and trying to shine light in dark places and encourage them in their struggles, always helping others.

Heather’s teen years and into adulthood were filled with many ups and downs.  For many years Heather fought a heroic battle with addiction with periods of great strength and courage to fight. At other times the fight was overwhelming losing her true self and causing distance between many close to her. Through her battles on her journey of life one thing that never changed was her love for her children Eladio Samuel and Alyrica Miracle right to the very end.  As hard as she fought; her addiction had a powerful hold on her and it was a struggle to help both herself and her children.  During her last few months with us her light really began to shine again, relationships were mended and the warrior in her was alive yet very fragile.  Those close to her know how much her heart was breaking yet she tried to walk forward with her head held high.  On April 9, God took the hand of his beautiful daughter and pulled her from the darkness that surrounded her.  It was time to rest in peace, her battle was over.  It is time to fly with the butterflies and dance with the Angels, with a special assignment of Guardian Angel over Eladio and Alyrica forever.

Heather will forever remain in the hearts of many.  Those with special memories and/or photos are asked to please help tell her story by contributing to the Life Event Timeline as a tribute to Heather Capri’s life.

Due to circumstances from the COVID-19 virus Celebration of Life arrangements will be at a later date.
