Leonardo Oblima,  A Life Well-Lived

Leonardo Oblima, better known to most as Nards, first saw the light on Wednesday, January 19, 1938 in Sinaola, Antique, Philippines . His parents, Miguel and Paz Oblima, took so much pride in having Leonardo for a son.

A brilliant man, Leonardo graduated Salutatorian in high school and Magna Cum Laude in college. He passed the CPA board exam with flying colors being in the top five. Though incredibly smart and creative, Leonardo lived a life of humility. His unassuming yet loving personality drew people to him be it in school, the work place and the church.

On October 24,1981, Leonardo married the love of his life Angelita Lagasca Oblima herself a class Valedictorian in grade school and college and a consistent scholar in high school. Nards’s little angel joined our Creator in November of 2013.

Psalm 127 : 3 says, “ Children are a blessing from the Lord.”  After losing a baby girl in miscarriage, that blessing came to Leonardo and Angelita on November 14, 1983 in the person of Leolito Antonio Lagasca Oblima. It’s a joy to know that Leo is now a Chief in the United States Navy.  Kuya Nards was thrilled to have witnessed the wedding of his favorite son to Anna Perez Oblima on April 29, 2021.

On the beautiful morning of Tuesday, March 9, 2022, Leonardo Oblima went home to be with the Lord.

Whether it be as an accountant in RCPI and other places he worked for or as a church leader in all the churches he attended or as a loving husband and supportive Dad, Leonardo was always a personification of love. Indeed, a life well-lived by a person well-loved.
