Jazmin Azucena Delgado

Jazmin Azucena Delgado, lovingly known as Jaz or Jazzy, was a devoted wife, mother, daughter, nurse, and friend whose life was marked by compassion, intelligence, and kindness. She was born on October 24, 1979, in Mexico, and she passed away on March 29, 2026, in San Antonio, Texas, after a courageous battle with cancer. She was 46 years old.

Jaz lived a life defined by service to others. She devoted her life to nursing, a profession she embraced with unwavering compassion, grace, and a deep commitment to the well-being of others. In every setting, she brought a steady presence and a genuine concern for the people in her care. She was known for her tireless dedication, always going the extra mile to make sure her patients felt seen, heard, and genuinely cared for. Nursing was not simply the work she did each day. It was part of who she was, a reflection of her heart and the way she approached the world.

Her educational journey reflected both her determination and unwavering commitment to excellence. She began her nursing studies at the University of the Incarnate Word, where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing. She went on to complete her Master of Science in Nursing at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio and later pursued a Post Master Certificate in Acute Care with a focus in Pediatrics at Vanderbilt University. These accomplishments stand as a testament to her discipline, perseverance, and deep dedication to a profession she truly loved. Through her education and career, she built a legacy of compassion, professionalism, and care that touched countless lives.

Family remained at the center of Jaz’s life. She is lovingly survived by her husband, John Munguia, and her daughters, Destiny Delgado and Layla Munguia. Those who knew her best understood that her love for her family was deep, constant, and unmistakable. She found joy in the everyday moments that became cherished memories, and she carried her role as a wife and mother with pride and devotion. Her family was the heart of her world, and she poured her energy, warmth, and love into every moment she shared with them.

Beyond her work and family life, Jaz embraced the simple joys that made life meaningful. She loved traveling and treasured every moment spent with her family. She found happiness in dancing, staying active, and cooking, often bringing people together with her warmth, energy, and love. Her home and her presence were places where people felt welcomed and uplifted. She had a gift for making others feel comfortable and cared for, and that gift extended far beyond her profession.

Those who knew Jaz will remember her as loving, intelligent, and kind. She carried herself with grace and strength, even in the face of illness, and she met life with a spirit that inspired those around her. Her legacy is not only found in her accomplishments, but also in the lives she touched through her compassion, her generosity, and her unwavering dedication to others. Her impact will continue to be felt by her family, her friends, her colleagues, and the many patients whose lives she helped improve.

As Maya Angelou once said, “People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” That sentiment beautifully reflects the life Jaz lived. She made people feel valued, cared for, and loved, and that is a lasting gift that will remain with all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Jazmin Azucena Delgado’s life was a shining example of devotion, resilience, and heart. Though her passing leaves a profound loss, her memory will endure in the love she gave, the care she provided, and the family she cherished. Her story is one of purpose and grace, and her presence will be deeply missed and forever remembered.
