Serapio Macadangdang Yanos, 99, of Kahului, passed away peacefully on May 7, 2023 at his
home with his loving family by his side.

Serapio was born on November 11, 1923 to the late Mr. Bernabe and Mrs. Petra Yanos. Serapio
leaves behind a legacy as a wonderful husband, father, grandfather, great grandfather, uncle,
and friend. In his earlier days, he was a successful businessman in the Philippines. He then
decided to move to Hawaii to join his siblings in 1965. In hopes of providing his family with new
opportunities, he moved to Maui and dedicated many years of service at HC&S. When he
wasn’t working, he enjoyed spending time with his children, and grand/great grandchildren,
teaching them the value of hard work, trusting God, prioritizing family, and maintaining one’s
peace. Serapio loved gardening, cooking, reading the Bible, dancing with his beautiful wife of 74
years, and having gatherings with his big family where he listened to his grandchildren play
music while talking stories for hours. He set a great example of what a long and happy life
looked like as a result of living harmoniously with others. His smile, easy-going personality,
generosity, and kindness he expressed to everyone around him will truly be missed.

Serapio leaves to cherish his memory, his loving wife, Priscilla Maria; children Nestor (Emily)
Yanos, Annie (Roger) Madariaga, Sally (Jerry) Macapulay, Leonie (Milan) Aguiran, Maggie
(Silver) Bonilla, Jimmy (Sally) Yanos, and Nena (Willie) Acoba; 13 grandchildren, and 8 great
grandchildren.

777 Maui Veterans Hwy, Kahului. Mr. Yanos will be laid to eternal rest the following morning on
Friday, May 26 at 10:30 a.m. at Maui Memorial Park, 450 Waiale Road, Wailuku.
