Angelico Nacanaynay
Angelico Nacanaynay. Dad, Daddy, Tito, Lolo, Papa, Tatay Lico, Angel. He was born on August 12, 1933. He died peacefully in his sleep on August 24, 2023. He is preceded in death by his beautiful wife and our Mom, Othelia, his parents, Flaviano and Benita, and his siblings, Cornelio, Jose, Monseratt, Leovigildo and Romeo. He is survived by his sister, Trinidad Nacanaynay Boloron. His children and their families: Vincent and Agnes, Patrick, Claire and Mary; Ramon; Benita and Winston, Francis and Lauren, Sabina; Jose Maria and Ana, Marianne, Jakob; Jesus Maria and Ruth, Danielle, Darielle and Hosea. And our adopted siblings, JI and Adelyn Marie.
Dad graduated from Miagao High School and spent some time with his brothers in Manila, and soon after he joined the US Navy. He retired from the Navy in 1975 and went back to school to get his college degree in Commerce at the University of San Agustin. He went back to federal service with the Military Sealift Command, continuing to proudly serve his adopted country. He finally retired in 1999 and spent his time with Mom visiting the children and traveling the world. They settled down in Barangay Malagyan, Miagao and truly enjoyed volunteering their time and resources with the community. Daddy loved Malagyan. He would tell many stories of his time as a young teenager – farming the land with his carabao, Kapon. We’re going to miss him telling those stories.
