Kalas Funeral Home & Crematory

Reynaldo Reyes Bernardo, 73, of Accokeek, Maryland passed away on February 18, 2023 due to natural causes.

Reynaldo was born on October 25, 1949 to Aurelia and Elino Bernardo in Manila City, Philippines. After Reynaldo graduated from San Sebastián High School in 1966, he went on to attain a Bachelor’s degree at 21 years old in Accounting at University of the East Philippines in 1970.

Afterward, he enlisted in the United States Navy in 1973, where he selflessly dedicated 22 years of his life as a Machinist Mate with a specialty in Cryogenics technology. After his honorable servitude in the nation’s defense, he retired at the rank of Chief Petty Officer in 1995. Shortly after retiring from the US Navy, he began working for the United States Postal Service. Upon retiring from the USPS after 27 years of loyal service, he spent his time enjoying his favorite pastime activities: fishing, gardening, DIY renovation projects around the house, and cheering for his favorite football team the Washington Redskins.

In 1976, Reynaldo met Teresita DeMesa Maniago at Olongapo City, Philippines. The two were married on March 6, 1977. Reynaldo and Teresita went on to travel the world together and have 4 children: Jonathan, Joanne-Marie, Jessica-Mae, and Jenny-Lynn, and would have celebrated 46 years of a devoted marriage on March 6th.

Reynaldo was predeceased by Aurelia and Elino Bernardo. He is survived by Erlin Bernardo, Mercy Angeles, and Didith Bernardo.
