Rosette Coronel Viduya

Our beloved Rosette Viduya, 59, passed away peacefully on September 27, 2026, surrounded by her family and loved ones in Vancouver, British Columbia. She was a devoted wife and mother, a cherished sister and aunt, and a dear friend to many.

Rosette was born on September 30, 1966, in Manila, Philippines, the daughter of Generoso Jr. and Leticia Quijano, and grew up with her siblings Rick, Richard and Rosalyn. It was there that she met her husband, Augustine "Tintin" Viduya. They married in 1995 and later welcomed their son, Justin, before moving to Vancouver in 2000.

Rosette was known for her kindness, generosity, and instinct to care for others before herself, especially Tintin and Justin. Though she made her life in Canada, she remained close to her family in the Philippines and continued to look after them from afar. She was hardworking and dependable, and Justin often remembers hearing her at home on the phone helping her co-workers. She took pride in her health and her home and was famously tidy, cleaning even when everything already looked spotless. Rosette loved to sing and had a beautiful voice- a gift Justin likes to think he inherited from her. She loved laughing with friends, watching Korean and Chinese dramas that Justin introduced her to, and enjoying a French vanilla or her favourite matcha latte, "single pump, non-fat". To her friends, she was a wonderful companion; to Tintin, a loving wife; and to Justin, the most beautiful and caring mother he could have asked for.

Rosette is survived by her husband, Augustine "Tintin" Viduya; her son, Justin Viduya; her siblings, Rick, Richard and Rosalyn; and her many relatives and friends. She was predeceased by her parents Generoso Jr. and Leticia Quijano. She will be remembered for her warmth, her laughter, her kindness, and the quiet care she gave to the people she loved. May her soul rest in peace.
