Ms. Salvacion “Baby” S. Jardenil (1937-2022)



“A great soul serves everyone all the time. A great soul never dies. It brings us together again and again.” – Maya Angelou

Ms. SALVACION “Baby” S. JARDENIL, former dean of the Conservatory of Music was an incredible person who will be sadly missed by so many people. The memory of her passion and dedication to the arts, her generosity, and kindness will live forever and continue to inspire those whose lives she touched.

Dean Jardenil’s 38 years of service in the University is an inspiration to the Augustinians who she greatly motivated. She organized the USA Troubadours in 1972, served as an editor of the book “The Restless Pilgrim”, the musicale based on the life of St. Augustine, and of “The Choral Profile” featuring the original works and arrangements of the former dean/founder, Fr. Santiago Ezcurra, OSA, which was published in 1992 as part of the silver jubilee of the Conservatory of Music. She served as dean of the same conservatory in 1987 until 2016.

We pray for the family of the late Dean Jardenil strength during this incredibly difficult time as we offer our supplications for the repose of her soul. Find rest now restless pilgrim after this earthly sojourn! Sing God’s praises in His presence!
