Elarma Palma

November 28, 1946 — June 29, 2025

Elarma "Emma" Palma, age 78, passed away peacefully on June 29, 2025. She was born on November 28, 1946, in Alcala Pangasinan, Philippines, and resided in Cerritos, California, at the time of her passing.

She is survived by her beloved husband, Kenny Palma, her devoted daughter, Kristine Palma, and her cherished grandson, Emerson Palma.

Emma was the loving daughter of the late Telesforo Lomboy and the late Felisa Lomboy, and the dear sister of the late Artemio Lomboy, the late Erling Pensader, Aida Ibe, Ligaya Riel, and Ester Quiming. She is also lovingly remembered by her many cousins, nieces, and nephews.

Emma’s love, strength, and quiet grace touched everyone who knew her. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother, a proud grandmother, and a kind soul who gave generously to her family and friends. She found joy in cooking, crocheting, playing mahjong, and most of all, spending time with those she loved. Her memory will live on in our hearts, and the warmth of her spirit will continue to surround us always.

The details are as follows:

  • Wednesday, July 23 – Viewing from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM

  • Thursday, July 24 – Viewing and Rosary from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM

Both events will be held at Forest Lawn, 4471 Lincoln Ave., Cypress, CA 90630, in the Patriots Chapel.

A Funeral Mass will be held on Friday, July 25 at 10:00 AM at St. Linus Catholic Church, 13915 Shoemaker Ave., Norwalk, CA 90650.

A gathering of family and friends will follow at the Gamboa-Levy residence, 4221 Avenida Madrid, Cypress, CA 90630.
