Richen P. Begonia (67), born on June 6, 1958, of Lakewood, California passed away January 3, 2026.
Born in Manila, Philippines to Miguel (Mike) and Venecia (Venie) Begonia, Richen moved to Los Angeles, California in April 1978. He was an accountant for over 25 years, but his real work was being the family's resident comedian (or asshole - if you know, you know).
For 41 years, he was the devoted husband of Caridad (Baby). Their marriage was a beautiful balance of her steady strength and his quirky, light-hearted spirit.
Richen is survived by his wife, Baby; his daughters, Erin and Annika; grandchildren Michael (Mike) and Amelia Rose (Lia); mother, Venie; sisters, Jocelyn (Joy) and Fatima (Madette); nieces, Samantha and Justine; nephew, Ryan; and many beloved family members and friends.
