Reynaldo Jamir Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Dec. 19, 2018.
His last words spoken to his wife of 55 years were

"we had a happy life."


Reynaldo R. Jamir, an artist at heart, of Azusa, California (originally of Binakayan, Philippines), met his Saviour surrounded by family on December 18, 2018.


An uxorious husband, Reny was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and near the end recognized few faces, yet he never forgot his wife, Marcela Cate. When asked to identify his wife during their last conversation, he answered simply "you are my love." A taciturn and soft spoken man, one of his favorite stories he would tell his three children was their love story. A devoted Marian, Reny had planned on becoming a priest before he even joined the U.S. Navy and though his great love for his wife bore a happy marriage, he remained focus on the teachings of Mama Mary and lived a life of service.


Reny was a disciplinarian but a very loving father to his children, Catherine Liwag (married to Peter Liwag), Clarissa Belmonte (married to Pierre Belmonte) and Kenneth Jamir (married to Cecile Samson) along with his five grandchildren, whom he helped raise: Justin Liwag, Terrin Liwag, Camilla Jamir, Joshua Belmonte and Julienne Belmonte, will miss this wonderful man greatly.


As the oldest of eight children (survived by six siblings: Luningning Gan, Remelita Tabing, Catalina Cajulis, Joven Jamir, Isagani Jamir and Teresita Welch), Reny was a responsible and loyal brother and dearly loved his parents, Francisco and Aurora Jamir.


Reny will be deeply missed and will never, ever be forgotten.
