Marcelino Bayuga

We regret to announce the passing of Marcelino H. Bayuga, Sr. on December 13, 2020. Marcelino was born on April 6, 1940 to Isabelo H. Bayuga and Felicidad Hernando in Ilocos Sur, Philippines.

During his teenage years, he decided to go to Manila where he met his wife, Aurea Bayuga, and they were married for more than 50 years. Marcelino and Aurea moved to Watsonville, CA in 1988 from the Philippines and were joined by their children a few years after. Marcelino, together with his wife Aurea, were a force of nature, determined to provide for his family and give them the life he felt they deserved. He retired from S. Martinelli's 20 years ago.

Anyone who knew Marcelino knew that he was the coolest person with family, relatives, and friends. He loved fishing and even taught his grandchild Andrew, how to fish. Marcelino's family meant more to him than anything else in the world. His family is very grateful to Marcelino for the life he had provided for them growing up. He never stopped quietly supporting and loving them even in his old age.

Marcelino was preceded in death by his son, Romulo Bayuga. He is survived by his wife, Aurea Bayuga; and his children Virgilio, Pacencia, Nelson, Junior, and Mario Bayuga, as well as 9 grandchildren.

Mehl's Colonial Chapel was entrusted with the funeral arrangements.
