Investigators limited their search for Santo to the Red Cedar River. Authorities searched for nearly three months but were unable to find Brendan, until Friday when police received information from a private investigator about his possible location.

Visitation services for Brendan Thomas Santo will be held Thursday, January 27, from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. at St. Andrew’s Catholic Church, located at 1400 Inglewood Avenue in Rochester.

The family asked people to donate money to first responders or animal shelters in Brendan’s name instead of flowers.
