OBITUARY FOR CRECENCIANA FAUSTINO PONCE
September 14, 1930 – September 16, 2022
92 years old
Crecenciana Faustino Ponce, 92 of Waipahu, Hawaii passed away on September 16, 2022, in Honolulu, Hawaii. She was born in Kahuku, Hawaii but her parents went back to the Philippines when she was still a baby, so she grew up in Maasasin, Magsingal, Ilocos Sur. She trained and became proficient as a hairdresser and seamstress while raising her family at their farm with her now deceased husband Leon Ponce. Her lasting legacy is that she is the main reason why her extended family is here in America. Her US birth certificate showing her as a US citizen, made it possible for her family to come to Hawaii.
She was industrious and worked hard at everything she did. She excelled and was proud of being a care home operator for more than 20 years with her husband when they moved to Waipahu, Hawaii in the 1970’s. She was a model wife and mother and was caring, loving, pleasant, prayerful, and responsible.
She is survived by her 7 children (2 daughters and 5 sons) and their spouses, 16 grandchildren, 16 great grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews and their families in Canada, England, Italy, Philippines, and the USA.
