Feliciano Labutong Pajimula Obituary (1936

Feliciano "Sonny" Pajimula, beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend, passed away peacefully on June 11, 2010 at the age of 74. Feliciano was born on Jan 24, 1936 and raised in Tarlac, Philippines to Fruto and Marciana (Labutong) Pajimula. He served in the US Navy from 1960 to 1980. He began a second career at PSNS, retiring in 1998. Feliciano was a member of the United Ilocanos of Puget Sound, Filipino-American Club of Kitsap County and the Knights of Columbus. Many knew him as "Sonny", a nickname appropriate for his love of gardening. Sonny loved to grow his own vegetables, tend various flowers and plants, and harvest cherries and pear apples from his own trees. Many friends and relatives will remember fishing & crabbing with Sonny over the years, as well as cooking for parties big & small, the sound of mahjong tiles being shuffled late into the night, and the sound of his beautiful baritone voice singing an Elvis tune. Rain or shine, Sonny simply enjoyed spending time with his friends and family, but there was nothing he loved more than spending time with his grandchildren. Sonny was preceded in death by his parents, Fruto and Marciana. He is survived by his wife of 43 years, Aida; his sons; Allan (Grace), Archie (Sabrina) of Bremerton, Fel (Janet) of Seattle; 7 grandchildren, Ashley, Trent'n, Gracellan, Isaiah, Alani, Sephina and Xavier; brother, Aurelio of Bremerton; and sister, Erlinda Tulioc of the Philippines.
