Gregoria Pangaliman-Panlasigui

The world shined brighter and heaven smiled on October 8, 1933 when Gregoria Pangaliman-Panlasigui was born in Bacar, Magsingal, Ilocos Sur, Philippines. On December 18, 2020, she went to be in God's eternal grace. She had the most beautiful passing, at home, surrounded by those who love her most, even if some were virtually. She passed away in the manner she had always prayed for.

P0065316-1_20210108.jpgx.jpg


She dedicated her life to be the most humble, faithful, and God-fearing woman there is. She raised two successful children and helped raise four grandchildren. She was Nanang (Mother) to not only her family, but to everyone else, too. She had an infectious smile; no one ever forgets her smile. She radiated kindness. She exuded gracefulness. Most importantly, she is the true testament of love. She leaves wonderful memories, life teachings, and everlasting footprints in people's hearts. We, her family, rejoice in knowing she will be in eternal paradise.


She joins her parents, Matias & Higina, and her husband, Crispin, in heaven. She is survived by her two children, Grace (Tito) and Redemptor (Rosanna), her four grandchildren, Darelle, Michael (Trang), Maimai, and Jeuss, two of the most beautiful great-granddaughters, Aliyah and Aleali, and her younger brother, Celerino. She also leaves behind many relatives who deeply love her.

SERVICES:
There will be a celebration of life for our Nanang at the Cherokee Memorial Park & Cemetery in Lodi, CA. On January 16, 2021, the viewing will be from 9:00AM-4:00PM at the Vineyard Chapel and a graveside service on January 17, 2021 at 2:00PM at the Garden of Grace.
