October 25, 1948 - January 18, 2021
Felix Lucero Lonzanida Jr. was born October 25, 1948 in Zambales, Philippines to Felix Lonzanida Sr. and Remedios L. Lonzanida. Oldest of 7 children and brother to Joven, Arnold, Lorna, Elisa, Irene, and Emelyn, he entered into heaven on January 18, 2021.
Felix immigrated to the United States in 1970. A longtime resident of Stockton, California, he attended Humphreys College and married his wife of 46 years, Minda. He then enlisted in the United States Army and served for 10 years. After the military, he worked for the United States Postal Service and later started his own painting business, Felonz Painting.
Felix enjoyed simple pleasures: Bowling, playing poker, BBQing his famous tri-tip, and watching his favorite football team, the San Francisco 49ers. He also enjoyed spending quality time with his daughters and grandchildren.
Not only was Felix a loving husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle, and friend, he will be most remembered for being humble, generous and welcoming.
Felix is survived by his wife Minda, daughters Michelle (Ronald), Tanya, and Samantha, and his 10 grandchildren: Tajah, Drew, Elani, Arianna, Julius, Liam, Gabriel, Kamryn, Isaiah, and Akoni.
