Marcelina Gutierrez Agtual, age 80, of Clovis, California passed away on Friday, April 26, 2024. She was born in the spring of 1943 in Nueva Ecija, Philippines to Clodoveo and Josefa (Padre) Gutierrez.
She was a caring and gentle soul whose quiet strength was felt by all who knew her. Marcelina's main love language, much to the joy of her loved ones, was cooking. Nothing made her happier than having her family all together enjoying one of her home cooked meals which always had an extra helping of love. The only thing that rivaled her passion for cooking for her family was her love of tending to her vast garden of flowers and plants. Born with a green thumb, she was able to take any plant no matter how much it is struggling and weak and was able to propagate it far beyond what others thought possible. She worked tirelessly to ensure each blossom and leaf was meticulously cared for. She will be greatly missed by all who loved her.
Marcelina is survived by her son Willie G. Agtual; her daughter-in-law Sylvia Agtual both of Los Angeles, CA; and her son Gary G. Agtual of Clovis, CA; her sister Felicia Placido, her brother Mario Gutierrez and her sister Teresita Manuel all of the Philippines; her granddaughter Isabel Agtual of Los Angeles, CA, her grandson Jack Agtual and her grandson Nicholas Agtual both of San Diego, CA.
