In loving memory of our beloved

Francisca Q. Pinon

                         October 10, 1936 – June 8, 2026

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and friend, Francisca “Penky” Q. Pinon, who entered eternal rest on June 8, 2026, at the age of 89.

Daughter of the late Daniel Quintana and Maria de Jesus Quintana. 

Penky was a loving and devoted wife to her husband Inez “Ney” Pinon of 71 years. Together they built a beautiful family rooted in faith, love, and tradition. She was a cherished mother to Martha, Bertha-Freddy, Ida, David-Becky, Gilbert "Guver". She was blessed with 11 grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren, and 2 great-great grandchildren, all of whom brought her immense joy and pride.

Penky is also survived by her beloved siblings, Fina Emler “Mom’s Twin,” Jessie Emler, Estella Garcia, Daniel “Chito” Quintana, George Quintana, and Mando Flores, along with many nieces, nephews, relatives, and dear friends.

Penky will be remembered for her loving heart, strong spirit, and unwavering devotion to her family. She found joy in caring for her home, tending to her beautiful rose bushes, dancing, and creating lasting memories with those she loved. Her warmth, laughter, wisdom, and kindness touched everyone who knew her. Her legacy of love, faith, and family will live on in the hearts of all who were blessed to know her.

Though she will be deeply missed, we find comfort knowing she is reunited with loved ones who have gone before her and is now resting peacefully in God’s embrace.

      Forever loved, forever remembered, and forever in our hearts.
