Dulce Montecillo Yanzon

Our beloved mother Dulce Montecillo Yanzon entered peacefully into rest at age 83 on December 04, 2024. Born on May 02, 1941, in Palompon, Leyte, Philippines she resided in Los Angeles, CA at the time of her passing. Mom held many titles in her life but her favorite role was being a mother. Devoted to her four daughters Marlina, Marilyn, Melody, Melinda, and only son Mackjim there was nothing she wouldn't do for her family. Her three grandchildren Dulce Isabel, James, and Demitri were her pride and joy. Wife of Jaime Yanzon for 55 years she was an avid fan of cooking shows, a great swimmer, and can carry a decent tune whenever she felt the urge to sing like no one was watching. Mom had a great personality, witty and clever with tons of lovable quirks. Kindness and gentleness were her default setting, so people gravitated to her. She was adored by many because she appreciated people just as they are. A modest woman with intellectual depth, vast wisdom, and a fighting spirit. Everyone felt blessed to be within her orbit, mom was always genuine in giving others praise and on occasion a random joke to brighten someone's day. Even in her darkest hours she expressed continued gratitude and displayed amazing courage. Her unwavering faith was admirable and a life lesson for us all. 

Our family appreciates all the sympathy, comforting words, prayers and all expression of kindness and concern. Arrangements are under the care of Forest Lawn, 21300 Via Verde Drive, Covina Hills, CA. 91724.
