At 12:58 pm on Sunday, December 1st 2024, Papa’s big, big, loving heart beat its last.

Thank you, God, for the blessing of this awesome person for eighty-nine years! We were looking forward to Papa being with us for his 90th birthday on July 22, 2025 but You decided Papa was ready to step into eternal life.

We, his children, Camille and Joseph, and our spouses, Noel Relucio and Janet Chung, together with his grandchildren Angela (Peaches) & Therese (Chips) Relucio, and Judd (Nico) Madarang will sorely miss this extremely wonderful father and grandfather!!!

Papa, those words are not enough to describe you. We will strive to keep you alive in our hearts everyday and work our best to meet you in heaven, someday.

Visiting will be Tuesday, December 10 from 4-8pm at John Dormi & Sons Funeral Home, 1121 Morris Park Avenue, Bronx. Mass of Christian Burial will be Wednesday, December 11 at 10am at St. Francis Xavier Church, 1703 Lurting Avenue, Bronx. Interment will follow at St. Raymond’s Cemetery, 2600 Lafayette Avenue, Bronx.

    It is a very sad news for me and my kids. We will always remember him as a loving, generous, and kind-hearted Tito and Lolo. We are not blood related but he treated us like family. Such a great privilege to share a home with him when he was here in Manila. We love you, Tito! You will forever be in our hearts.
    Our condolences and prayers for comfort, Ate Camille, Kuya Bruce and family!

      What a trail of love Papa has left behind. Footsteps are imprinted deep in the hearts of those who met him. So, so, deep the pain becomes unbearable sometimes.
