Rodel Arceo Pamintuan, age 67, of North Las Vegas, Nevada passed away on Sunday, September 25, 2022. Rodel is the third of eight children was born March 13, 1955 in Philippines. His parents were Jose Razon Pamintuan (died in 1975) and Carolina Arceo Pamintuan (died in 2016). He and his siblings were baptized and educated in the Roman Catholic Faith. While living with his common-law wife from 1978, they were blessed with a son and a daughter. He and his two children migrated to the United States in the year 2000. In 2005, Rodel met his future wife, Julieta Angeles Pamintuan while they were working together in San Diego, California. Julieta was already blessed with two children of her own at the time and later the couple were blessed with another baby boy. The family led a busy but peaceful life until 2013 when Rodel had undergone a kidney surgery. Later it was found that the only kidney left was also unable to support his body filtration so he started to undergo thrice a week dialysis. His body started to weaken but there was no available kidney donor to do a kidney transplant. In 2020 at the request of his family and because of Rodel’s impending retirement from his employment, he decided to move with his family to Las Vegas, Nevada where they were able to acquire a four-bedroom house. In the meantime, his physical condition deteriorated that even his scheduled dialysis coupled with a cadre of medicines could not help sustain his health and strength. He fought so hard for his survival from his terminal illness which was diagnosed as Metastatic Renal Cancer (a disease which started from his kidney and spread to his lungs). All this time that Rodel was suffering from his illness; his family, relatives and even friends supported him in many ways such as being there for any assistance he might need, sometimes driving him to and from the dialysis center or even to emergency hospitals, but most of all through prayers and physical and spiritual encouragement to keep his faith, hope and fight for himself and his family. Rodel touched the lives of so many people because of his decency, kindness, respect for all people and most of all his strong faith in God. He was always ready to share the knowledge and wisdom he gained from his prayerful parents that made him who he was; a model father for all his children and an idealistic disciple of Jesus Christ. Rodel will be sorely missed by everyone who knew him. Let us always keep his memory alive in our hearts and pray that he will be welcomed into paradise where he will experience all the promises made by Jesus, our Savior, to all believers. Thank you Jesus for Rodel’s life and all the years we shared with him. Please, give us the strength to leave him under Your care and in the knowledge that he will be spending eternal life with all Your angels and saints in Your kingdom; praising You forever.
