Edilia Lucy Neblina, 93, passed away on October 21, 2026. Born on September 9, 1933, Edilia will be remembered with deep respect and enduring gratitude for a life marked by devotion, steady generosity, and the quiet strength of faithful service.
Edilia found joy in the work of her hands and the richness of tradition. She loved crocheting and music, and she was notably instrumental—able to catch on simply by listening. Her faith was not only personal but lived: she served as a eucharistic minister for many years and, as part of the rosary makers from Saint Anthony’s, dedicated more than 30 years to making rosaries that were sent across countries, offering comfort and connection to people far beyond her immediate community.
Edilia is survived by her children Leonard Pablo, Margarita Pablo, Orcina Garcia, Fabiola “Fay” Pablo, and Andrea Neblina; as well as 29 grandchildren, 90 great-grandchildren, and 45 great-great-grandchildren.
Edilia was preceded in death by her parents, Jose Domingo Neblina and Alicia Adelina Miranda, her daughter, Audrey Glendora Pablo, four siblings, Ernesto Neblina, Josephine Molina, Juanita Hood and Teresa Velasco.
