Queen of Heaven Cemetery and Mortuary - Rowland Heights Obituary

Narciso Sanchez Duldulao, Jr. born youngest child and only son to Narciso Saturnino Duldulao, Sr. and Rufina Corpuz Sanchez on November 19th, 1949, in Loaog, Philippines. He was a spirited and energetic child who made his presence known, especially amongst his high school classmates, at St. Joseph High School. He studied Civil Engineering from Feati University in Manila and graduated in 1969. He started his career in public works as an engineer for the National Irrigation Administration of Loaog City. He was soon promoted to Chief Engineer and improved services offered by the city and helped mentor numerous young engineers as they built their careers serving their hometown of Loaog. All members of his family were filled with ambition and pursued careers in America. Before travelling to the United States, he met his eternal love on December 26th, 1975, as a blind date. Just like a captivating romantic movie, the love between Marsha Filomena Bernardino and Narciso Duldulao ignited. Their love inspired their ambitious move to America. As part of this endeavor, Narciso joined and served in the US Navy. He completed his term in 1980 and married his love, Marsha, to highlight the year on December 26th. After working various jobs throughout California, he finally obtained a job at Los Angeles County of Public Works just before the birth of his son, Marjun Philip Narciso Duldulao, III on May 3rd, 1982. He finished his long career as a civil engineer and retired after 32 years in 2014.


Narciso’s own ambitions were not limited to his own career, and he was humbly part of numerous community developments which included the co-founding of St. Joseph Parishioners, USA and the creation of an annual scholarship benefiting high school students at his alma mater. For over 30 years, his scholarship helped support over 300 students who matriculated at St. Joseph High School. In addition, his efforts helped support his hometown parish church and assisted in the construction of the All-Saints Wing. Despite all his contributions, Narciso sought no recognition for these generous gifts, and only wished for the success of those who still lived in Loaog and elsewhere. He worked tirelessly to engage in projects that would help stimulate the growth and welfare of those within his hometown while also instilling the value of unyielding selfless servitude in his only son, Marjun Philip. Even while being diagnosed and treated for liver cancer his grand projects never ceased. On October 15th, 2025, Narciso passed away humbly beside his wife, with his last breath reverberating words of love and blessing. Ultimately, his legacy lives on not only in his surviving wife and son but also in his equally ambitious and energetic grandsons, Sebastian and Nathaniel Duldulao. Narciso Duldulao lived a life of hard-work and dedication to family and community. His presence will be missed and honored by those who knew him best. May his soul rest in peace.

My grieving heart
10/25/25 Day 10
Am still in denial that you are gone
Home in heaven until I come
To join you forever in each other’s arms
Watch over us this I ask
Our small family you’ve loved so much
Embers of love surrounds we hold dear
Priceless legacy of a builder

In loving memory of a wonderful person. Uncle Boy will be dearly missed. You and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers. Our deepest condolences.

I think of you always
In every breathe I take
In every move I make
I think of you silence
I often speak your name “Dad”
But that is nothing new

Now all I have are memories
Your pictures in a frame
Can’t replace your touch
Your memory is my keepsake
With which will never fade
Lord God has you in keeping
I have you forever in my heart!
