LOVING HUSBAND, DAD, GRANDPA, BROTHER, SON AND BEST FRIEND
+VALENTINO CALARANAN ALCON
70, Beloved husband, father, grandfather, son, brother, cousin and best friend for so many who have touched his life. He joined the Lord on July 10, 2020 at Pali Momi Medical Center in Aiea, Hawaii. He was born in Barangay #1, Sarrat, Ilocos Norte, Philippines on February 14, 1950. He is survived by his wife, Lureta Lagua Alcon; son, Brian Alcon (Tasha Silva), grandson Landen Alcon and his siblings: Lourdes Alcon Ganir (Brigido Ganir), Socrates Alcon (Luz Digo Alcon), Arsenio Alcon (Norma Balicoco Alcon), Mergeline Alcon Berueda (Michael Berueda), Nerio Alcon (Delia Castillo Alcon) and many uncles, aunties, cousins, nephews, nieces and other relatives here in Hawaii, the mainland USA, Canada, Australia, Spain and the Philippines. He was the third child (of seven) of the late Servando Malvar Alcon and Maria Agoto Calaranan Alcon. He was predeceased by his eldest brother +Julian C. Alcon (who was married to the former Aquilina Agnir). He migrated to the USA in January of 1983 along with his four other siblings.
A very industrious and hardworking person, he lovingly, faithfully devoted and dedicated his thirty-eight year Hawaii work life with Lakeshore Tower Condominium as a utility/maintenance person at Salt Lake, Honolulu – a job he accepted the following day he arrived in his newfound home here in Hawaii nei. In the Philippines, he was in charge of the family’s farmland along with his late father, making sure that there was always food on the table and plenty extras to support the growing family including the pursuit of his siblings’ higher education. He was a jack of all trades/handyman and excelled in wood curving (furnitures) and as an electrician/carpenter. A talented person, his hobbies included reading, solving crossword puzzles and cooking.
A very loving husband, was married to his wife Lureta of 32 years (6/4/88) and together they were blessed with a son in 1990 (Brian).
He was a very supportive, very kind, caring and dotting husband, father and grandfather and teasingly called him house-husband. He left a huge void with his family as he was above all else, took care of almost everything and provided lovingly for his family.
Val as everybody fondly called him was a man of a few words and was never heard him say anything negative out of his mouth. He always put others first-readily extended help whenever help was needed. He was also a great support to his siblings especially to his two loving sisters Ludi(Brigido) and Margie(Michael) whom he lived with them with his family.
His family and his siblings and the many whose lives he touched, will miss his quiet strength and ever loving, always ready-support, but they all are comforted in knowing that he will be united with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and reunited with all loved ones who have gone before them.
“We all love you dearly and we always will. You will be greatly missed and we miss you now. Thank you for all the kind-loving support – we will forever be grateful and will always be remembered. The comfort of having you here on earth is taken away but the beautiful memories will always and forever remain in our hearts. Rest in love now and don’t worry about anything. We will continue to pray that you have a peaceful and eternal rest with the Lord. Until we meet again”
From your loving wife, son, grandson and your loving sisters and brothers and their families.
