Anibal Palacios Rojas Obituary

Visit the Beall Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.

Aníbal Abad Palacios Rojas, beloved father, grandfather, scholar, storyteller, and lifelong student of history and philosophy, passed away peacefully in Annapolis, Maryland, on February 13, 2026, at the age of 95.

Born on July 9, 1930, in the district of Marcabal, province of Sánchez Carrión, La Libertad, Peru, Aníbal’s life was rooted in intellectual curiosity and a deep love for culture, history, science, and truth. He completed his primary education at the Centro Escolar de Marcabal and earned a scholarship to attend the Colegio Nacional San Juan de Trujillo. He later graduated as a Journalist and Professor of Philosophy and Social Sciences from the Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal in Lima, Peru.

His professional life reflected his passion for ideas and civic engagement. He briefly served as an assistant professor in Contemporary Philosophy and later worked for seven years at the political newspaper La Tribuna in Lima as a writer, reporter, and editorial contributor. He also served as a public relations professional at the Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal.

Throughout his life, he charmed those around him with his natural educator’s spirit and his great sense of humor. He compiled his reflections into more than 400 articles shared through Google and Facebook. He addressed political, historical, philosophical, and scientific themes with humility and intellectual rigor. Conversations with him were lessons in culture and memory — rich with analysis, perspective, and heart. He had a remarkable gift for storytelling, weaving together philosophy, art, science, and lived experience into thoughtful reflections that left lasting impressions on those who listened.

Aníbal shared a devoted marriage with his beloved late wife, Jesús Elena Palacios Morales-Bermúdez. Together they raised a blended family grounded in love and unity. He was a father to Carlos Milton Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Rina Rocío Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Angionina Giovanna Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, and Flavio Alexander Palacios Morales Bermúdez. He also lovingly embraced and raised Liliana Orue (deceased), Zenia Orue, Carlos Hugo Orue, Carlos Wilson Orue (deceased), and Carlos Aldo Orue (deceased), never distinguishing between children by blood but only by love.

He is survived by his children: Zenia Orue, Carlos Hugo Orue, Carlos Milton Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Rina Rocío Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Angionina Giovanna Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, and Flavio Alexander Palacios Morales Bermúdez. He is also survived by his grandchildren — Stephanie Palacios, Gianfranco Palacios, Valeria Valladares, Gabriella Valladares, and Diana Valladares — along with many other cherished grandchildren and great-grandchildren who knew him simply as “Abuelito” and experienced his guidance, stories, and unconditional love.

Aníbal was born to Flavio Alcides Palacios Armas and Juana Rojas Ramirez and was lovingly raised by Nestor Rojas and Santos Rojas. As his earthly journey concludes, his family finds comfort in imagining him reunited with his beloved wife, his children who preceded him in passing, and once again united with the parents who shaped his life.

He will be remembered for his sharp intellect, humility, reverence for art and culture, and his enduring belief that the human soul and the mind are deeply intertwined. His voice, his writings, and his love live on in the family he nurtured and the legacy of thought he leaves behind.


Aníbal Abad Palacios Rojas, amado padre, abuelo, erudito, narrador y eterno estudiante de la historia y la filosofía, falleció en paz en Annapolis, Maryland, el 13 de febrero de 2026, a la edad de 95 años.

Nació el 9 de julio de 1930 en el distrito de Marcabal, provincia de Sánchez Carrión, departamento de La Libertad, Perú. La vida de Aníbal estuvo marcada por una profunda curiosidad intelectual y un gran amor por la cultura, la historia, la ciencia y la verdad. Realizó sus estudios primarios en el Centro Escolar de Marcabal y obtuvo una beca para cursar la secundaria en el Colegio Nacional San Juan de Trujillo. Posteriormente se graduó como Periodista y Profesor de Filosofía y Ciencias Sociales en la Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal de Lima, Perú.

Su vida profesional reflejó su pasión por las ideas y el compromiso cívico. Se desempeñó brevemente como ayudante de cátedra en el curso de Filosofía Contemporánea y trabajó durante siete años en el diario político La Tribuna de Lima como redactor, cronista y colaborador en la página editorial. Asimismo, ejerció como relacionista público en la Universidad Nacional Federico Villarreal.

A lo largo de su vida, encantó a muchos por su constante perfil educador y su gran sentido del humor. Recopiló sus reflexiones en más de 400 artículos compartidos a través de Google y Facebook. Abordó temas políticos, históricos, filosóficos y científicos con humildad y rigor intelectual. Conversar con él era recibir lecciones de cultura y memoria, siempre llenas de análisis, perspectiva y sensibilidad. Poseía un don extraordinario para la narración, entrelazando filosofía, arte, ciencia y experiencias de vida en reflexiones profundas que dejaban huella en quienes lo escuchaban.

Aníbal compartió un matrimonio lleno de amor y compromiso con su querida esposa, Jesús Elena Palacios Morales-Bermúdez (fallecida). Juntos formaron y criaron una familia unida y cimentada en el amor. Fue padre de Carlos Milton Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Rina Rocío Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Angionina Giovanna Palacios Morales-Bermúdez y Flavio Alexander Palacios Morales Bermúdez. Asimismo, acogió y crió con el mismo amor a Liliana Orue (fallecida), Zenia Orue, Carlos Hugo Orue, Carlos Wilson Orue (fallecido) y Carlos Aldo Orue (fallecido), sin distinguir jamás entre hijos por la sangre, sino únicamente por el amor.

Le sobreviven sus hijos: Zenia Orue, Carlos Hugo Orue, Carlos Milton Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Rina Rocío Palacios Morales-Bermúdez, Angionina Giovanna Palacios Morales-Bermúdez y Flavio Alexander Palacios Morales Bermúdez. También le sobreviven sus nietos: Stephanie Palacios, Gianfranco Palacios, Valeria Valladares, Gabriella Valladares y Diana Valladares, así como muchos otros queridos nietos y bisnietos que lo conocieron simplemente como “Abuelito” y recibieron su guía, sus historias y su amor incondicional.

Aníbal nació de Flavio Alcides Palacios Armas y Juana Rojas Ramirez, y fue criado con amor por Nestor Rojas y Santos Rojas. Al concluir su camino terrenal, su familia encuentra consuelo al imaginarlo reunido con su amada esposa, con sus hijos que partieron antes que él y nuevamente unido con los padres que marcaron su vida.

Será recordado por su aguda inteligencia, su humildad, su profunda reverencia por el arte y la cultura, y por su firme convicción de que el alma humana y la mente están íntimamente entrelazadas. Su voz, sus escritos y su amor perduran en la familia que formó y en el legado de pensamiento que deja como herencia.
