Elizabeth Saspa Jimenez

Elizabeth Saspa Jimenez, 66, of Chino Hills, CA, passed away February 17, 2026. She was a devoted wife, and a loving daughter, sister, and aunt.

Elizabeth was born on February 18, 1959 in Quezon City, Philippines. A registered nurse by profession, she worked in New York as a pediatric nurse, before moving to California where, for 30 years, she was a NICU nurse at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles; she retired as a patient care manager of the same institution.

Starting in her college days, Elizabeth was an active leader at the Inter-varsity Christian Fellowship, tirelessly organizing concerts, fundraisers and other events to help spread the Gospel.

In her spare time, she enjoyed cooking and tending to her garden. She especially loved David Austin’s English and antique roses. But more than anything, she loved being with her family, and looked forward to weekend bingo nights with them.

She is survived by her husband of 32 years, Ernest Jimenez, father Salvador Saspa, brothers Alexander and James, sisters Jocelyn, Evangeline, Catherine, and Annabelle, 19 nieces and nephews, and 10 great-nieces and great-nephews.
