Pedro Najar Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Nov. 8, 2024.
Pedro O. Najar was born in Roswell, New Mexico on November 14, 1947. He was a skilled machinist and builder, whose hands crafted not just objects, but cherished memories for all those fortunate enough to know him.

Moving from New Mexico in the late 1960s, Pedro, settled in San Jose, CA and started a family with his wife, Yolanda. He worked in the manufacturing industry, and eventually began a career in machining. Pedro was also a self-taught carpenter, and spent his free time constructing and improving his home.

As a husband, he was a pillar of strength and a constant source of love and support. As a father, grandfather, and great-grandfather he imparted invaluable life lessons, nurturing their dreams and aspirations.

Pedro's legacy extends beyond the physical structures he built; it lives on in the hearts and minds of those touched by his kindness, wisdom, humor and smile. He leaves behind a profound void that can never be filled. His memory will forever be etched in our hearts.

He passed peacefully, surrounded by all of his beloved family on August 21, 2023. May he rest in eternal peace.

Memorial Service will be held on December 21, 2024 at Lima Family Erickson Memorial Chapel, in San Jose, Ca.
