Rafael Tancioco, beloved son of Alejandro and Monserrat Tancioco, reunited with his parents and sister Annie in heaven on July 29, 2024. Rafael immigrated to Pueblo, Colorado from Manila, Philippines in 1971 and became a U.S. citizen in 1977. He was an artist, a car enthusiast, and music lover. But above all, he enjoyed the company of people.
For many years, Rafael quietly battled numerous health conditions, courageously maintaining strength to carry on out of sheer love for his family and friends.
His gentle fun-loving spirit will live on in the hearts of his wife Jill, sister Susan Thompson (Bill), brother Norman Tancioco (Dolly), close family and friends.
