Francisca Felipe Baucan passed away on Monday, October 20, 2025, at the age of 73. She was born on August 18, 1952, in the Philippines and lived a life filled with love, devotion, and a deep sense of faith.
Francisca found joy in the simple pleasures of life, such as gardening, cooking and preparing meals for family, and singing along to her favorite song. Music was another source of joy for her and echoed her joyful spirit.
Her faith played an important role in her life. She was known for her religious devotion that guided her and those around her. She lived a life that embraced kindness and compassion, leaving a profound impact on all who knew her.
Francisca is survived by her three sons, David, Michael, and Scott Baucan; along with several grandchildren who carry on the values she instilled in them.
