As many of us know, Melissa’s husband, Crespin, had been courageously battling illness and was hospitalized for some time before he peacefully passed away on January 8, 2026. Crespin was a devoted son to his mother, Juaquina; a loving and faithful husband to Melissa De Jesus Pedraza; and a proud, caring father to Ramon, Ana, Cet, and Erasto, as well as Jose M. and Piedad Pedraza. He was also a cherished grandfather who found great joy in his grandchildren—Mariany, Aliany, Janianny, Erica, Elian Pedraza, and Joshua Ocana III—whose lives were deeply blessed by his love. During this season of sorrow, we take comfort in God’s promise: “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit” (Psalm 34:18). As a workplace family, we come together in prayer, love, and support for Melissa and her family. Any contribution, no matter the amount, is a blessing and will help provide comfort and support as they navigate this profound loss. Please continue to keep Melissa and her loved ones lifted in prayer as we honor and celebrate Crespin’s life.
