Romulo A. Nacional Jr.

Romy is lovingly remembered by his devoted wife, Rosalinda (née Castillo); his son and daughter-in-law, Zeke and Larissa; and his cherished grandchildren Ryan and Madison, who meant the world to him. He is also survived by his siblings Lulu, Adette, Meg, Chit, and Don. He was preceded in death by his parents, Romulo and Amparo.

Born on August 8, 1960, in Goa, Camarines Sur, Philippines, Romy earned his degree in Physical Therapy from the University of Santo Tomas. After beginning his career in Manila, he moved to Hamilton, TX. He later met the love of his life, Rosalinda during a visit to San Antonio, TX. He worked briefly in East Liverpool, OH before settling in San Antonio, where Romy and Rosalinda began their lives together. He looked forward to retiring soon to spend more time with family and to travel.

Romy was a devoted and loving husband, father, grandfather, and brother. He brought joy to those around him as a gifted cook and gracious host. His love of music shone through in countless karaoke gatherings shared with family and friends. A natural storyteller with a quick wit, Romy had a way of lighting up any room. His humor and positive spirit touched many lives, and he was known for his resourcefulness and dedication, whether in his professional work or personal projects. He also took great pride in his growing business in the Philippines, which he had hoped to devote more time to in the years ahead.

Romy will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Family and friends, along with all whose lives Romy touched, are invited to attend a rosary on April 6, 2026, at Porter Loring Mortuary – West at 1710 W. Loop 1604 N, San Antonio, TX at 6:00pm, and a funeral service on April 7, 2026, at 12:00 noon at the same location.
