1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF EMENCITA P. MADAYAG
PRAYER IN HER LOVING MEMORY:
God saw she was getting tired and the cure was not to be
So He put his arms around and whispered, "Come with Me."
With tearful hearts we watched her fade away
Although we loved her dearly, we could not make her stay.
A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.
WE MISS YOU & LOVE YOU DEARLY

Emencita P. Madayag

1948-2011 Emencita P. Madayag, 62, passed away peacefully on a beautiful, warm sunny afternoon, Saturday, March 5, 2011, after a lengthy courageous battle with cancer.
Emmy was born on November 25, 1948, in Caturay, Gerona, Tarlac, Philippines. As the eldest daughter of Serapio and Maria Pontanes, she grew up with ten brothers and sisters.
Prior to her residence in Fillmore, she lived in Sunnymead (Moreno Valley), Riverside County. In 1981, Emmy began her residence in Oxnard, Ventura County; and, in 2005 moved to Fillmore.
Emmy loved flowers especially roses, she enjoyed gardening, interior designing, sewing, and traveling. She had a bright smile and colorful soul; such that Emmy made sure anything and everything around her had some color in it including pink, purple, and red. She was an angel to all and touched the lives of many. Emmy had a heart of gold and a caring spirit as she always was thinking of others in need. Emmy was fiercely independent and made sure everyone knew she was just fine. She had numerous friends and acquaintances. Emmy was an employee of Olde Thompson, Inc., the last 20 years. Before that, she worked at Transco, Inc., and Pinkerton, Inc., in Camarillo.
She is preceded in death by her father and mother, Serapio and Maria Pontanes, brothers Eldie Pontanes, Romeo Pontanes, and Serapio Pontanes, Jr.
She is survived by daughter, Frances Gutierrez (husband Jay); son, Philip Madayag (wife Amber). Grandchildren Tristan Gutierrez, Jayson Gutierrez, Aaliyah Madayag, and Malik Madayag. Siblings: Renato Pontanes, of Philippines, Elizabeth Pontanes, of Australia, Brenda Galimba, of San Diego, Semar Pontanes, of the Philippines, Yolanda Salagubang, of Oxnard, and Jesusa Lyons, of Oxnard; and numerous nieces and nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.
We would like to extend our deepest gratitude to Roze Room Hospice of Ventura and the many physicians, nurses, office staff, and health-care providers for their care and support.
Visitation will be held from 4 to 8 p.m. on Friday, March 11, with a Vigil/Rosary service at 6:30 p.m. at Santa Clara Mortuary, 2370 North H Street, Oxnard, (805) 485-5757.
