Titus Vanguardia Tabotabo III

Titus III was born on April 16, 1989 in Manila, Philippines, the second son of Titus and Bebe Tabotabo. He spent his childhood in Cebu, Philippines and graduated high school from the University of Cebu. He was pursuing a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management at Jose Rizal University in Manila before his family migrated to the US in 2008. Titus III or "Lyndel" as he is fondly called by friends and family was such an outgoing and positive person. He lit up a room with his smile, wit and friendliness.

Lyndel was a certified USPTA tennis coach and taught at the prestigious Gorin Tennis Academy in Granite Bay before moving to Stockton. The City of Lodi Parks and Recreation Program was fortunate to acquire his teaching talent; he was equally proud to be one of their instructors for the 10 and under program. His enthusiasm for tennis and coaching was very infectious and inspiring to all who knew him. Lyndel was also a dedicated employee at the Niagara Bottling Company in Stockton. He was extremely motivated and driven working two jobs to pursue the ultimate American dream of owning his own home for his new family and setting up a college fund for his son. He will be dearly missed by all his students in the San Joaquin, Bay and Sacramento areas as well as those who knew him off the courts and by his supervisors and coworkers.

Lyndel is survived by his beloved wife, Febe Palaruan Tabotabo and his three year old son, Andre Titus. He also leaves behind his parents, Titus and Bebe and his siblings, Ronan, Lara and Vince Marc.

The family of Titus Tabotabo lll would like to express thanks for those who share our grief during this hour of bereavement. All expressions of love at the passing of our loved one and all other acts of kindness and financial support will be acknowledged at a later date.
