Predeceased by 4 brothers & 4 sisters, she grew up in a closely knit, fun loving, musically talented family. Conversations during their family gatherings revolved around Philippine politics & law which usually escalated to intellectual debate & banter. Asuncion worked as a School Teacher after obtaining her Bachelor of Science in Education degree. She was a dutiful and caring wife, beloved mother, grandmother, sister, and aunt. She was very prayerful, witty, intelligent, a wide reader, always compassionate & giving to the underprivileged and the needy. She was active in both civic and religious organizations. She enjoyed her years as a volunteer with the Philippine Red Cross, Philippine Girl Scouts, and Catholic Charities. For many years, she was the Secretary of her Parish Church Catholic Women’s League and was an Officer of a Women’s Club that managed the operation of a Community Health Centre. In the 70’s, she was a founding member of the Filipino Parents’ Association in Toronto. Her husband, having served in the Philippine Army Medical Corps, joined the Toronto Filipino Veteran’s Association and Asuncion was an active participant in supporting activities of the Veteran Association’s Women’s Auxillary group. She was a member of the Markham Federation of Filipino Canadians where she enjoyed participating in the Seniors’ programs and events.
elevated 4UKwp By Almighty God’s grace, we thank our beloved “Sunshine” for her great influence in our lives – the love, the wisdom, the kindness, the respect and the wonderful lessons she shared unselfishly with our entire clan & her friends through the long years. She will be greatly missed.

No matter how old we are, it’s never easy to lose a parent. Our thoughts and prayers are with you as you mourn the loss of your mom, Mama Sunshine. Mama Asuncion’s memories will be the sunshine that will shine upon you in the days to come of your grieving. We never spoke to your mom when we saw her once in Angie’s and Lou’s 50th wedding anniversary but we can tell how wonderful she must have been just by knowing Angie, Vicky and your spouses, Lou and Rene respectively. The children reflect the best parts of their parents. Take comfort in your memories of her as you grieve. She is rest assured by our Lord God Almighty to rest in His peace with His eternal light always shining upon her. God bless and hugs.

Our deepest condolences to Mareng Vicky & Pareng Rene and jo the whole family.
May she rest in peace …
I have only know her for a few yrs, but she added a good deal of sunshine to my family, by giving her wonderful grandson in marriage to my beautiful granddaughter. She spread her sunshine far and wide. I made a special connection with her, and if anyone deserved that nickname, it was certainly her. Gramma Sunshine, suited her to a tee.May she have a well deserved rest . I know she has a special place with our “LORD”, Rest in peace Grandma Sunshine.
Our deepest sympathies go out to the Kimpo-Fenol family.
Her journey to the kingdom of our Lord will be guided by our lasting prayers. May she rest in peace.

I was trying to virtually attend the funeral mass of Mommy Fenol but for some reason the live stream stopped working. It is working again. I am sure she is now in eternal peace in that room specially prepared for her by her Creator. Condolence to the whole Fenol family.
No matter how old we are, its never easy to lose a Mother.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and family as you grieve.
Our deepest and heartfelt condolences to “Lola Sunshine’s” family. Sending love and strength to everyone. She has left a beautiful legacy and may she continue to shine in all the lives of her loved ones. Rest in paradise 🙏🏼🤍

My thoughts and prayers are with you. May she rest in peace…
Mrs. Fenol lived an exemplary life, not only in terms of her longevity but more so in terms of what she had accomplished in her lifetime. To paraphrase the great Abraham Lincoln: “It isn’t the number of years in one’s life that counts, but rather, the amount of life in those years”. Our sincerest condolences to Angie, Vicky and your entire family. May Mrs. Fenol’s soul rest in peace, and God bless her.

To my dearest cousins Nang Geline, Nes, Vicky and Grace,
Extending my heartfelt condolence to you all and your loved ones.
Although I was very young then I remember how good Auntie Asing and Uncle Nesto was to me and my younger brother Abet when we lived in the house behind you growing up in Limay St, Manuguit in Tondo. Had very fond memories of those days. I remember Auntie Asing as a very caring aunt always smiling and very nice to us. She was really blessed to have lived till 104 with all her grandchildren and great grandchildren. I am sure she was very proud of all of them and of course you her own children. I too have 5 grandchildren. Ontario is a little far from me but the world is small so I might be fortunate to see you one day. I retired last year and now live in Las Vegas. My wife Cora and I have 2 children (both boys). I will pray for Auntie Asing.
Much love to all of you. Armand Martinez
Please accept our condolences. Our thought and prayers are with you.
God bless,
