Banjo Vilbar

Banjo Benedict Vilbar, 35, passed away on August 17, 2022, in Las Vegas, Nevada. He was born May 15, 1987, in the island of Leyte in the Philippines to Henry Vilbar and Josie Vilbar and was raised with his brother Gian Carlo Vilbar in Bulacan, Philippines before they moved to Goodyear, Arizona and settled in Las Vegas Nevada where his whole family lived for 17 years. He was in the hospitality industry in various locations in the Vegas strip but went back to the Philippines in 2011 where he met his loving wife Earthenny and soon after conceived his son Brix. He then went back to Las Vegas in 2013 where he pursued his passion for mixology and worked hard to be able to migrate his family and settle with him in America. In February of 2020 they conceived their youngest son Luke and continued to build a strong and bright future.

Banjo is a kind and charming person, a hard worker, a loving family man, and very giving. He would not complain and continued to learn and improved himself to provide not just for his family but everyone else that he could help. He has an easy-going personality, but energy is contagious and fills any room with joy making you feel his presence.

His journey taught us that we should enjoy every second in this life, make the most of every moment and to be cordial. To not be afraid to search for happiness and make sure to share our love in each in every day. He will be deeply missed by his family, friends, and all who knew him. May he rest in peace and let his legend live forever.

Banjo is survived by his loving wife, Earthenny; his sons Brix and Luke; his parents Henry and Josie; his brother Gian; his nephews, nieces, cousins, relatives and friends.
