Concepcion Drupals

Concepcion Drupals was born in Bulan, Sorsogon in the Bicol region of the Philippines on February 7th, 1933. She graduated from Philippine Normal College and pursued the profession of teaching as an elementary school teacher. In 1967, she emigrated to the United States. Eventually she settled in Greenwich, Connecticut with a home in Riverside. She married Guntis Drupals, and together they raised three sons. Concepcion was devoted to her faith and religion, and she worshipped regularly at St. Catherine of Siena and St. Clement of Rome churches. By family and friends, she was called Mom, Tita Patty, Lola, Connie, and Cion. And she will always be known to be sweet, kind, beautiful, and gentle yet strong, determined, and faithful. She enjoyed several, long-awaited days with her family and friends at her home and days of devotion and worship at St. Clement Church. Surrounded by her family and friends and trusting that it was God’s Will, Concepcion passed away on July 6th, 2022. Throughout her entire life and at her final hour, she had always emphasized the importance of Forgiveness and Prayer. In Heaven, she is reunited with her husband Guntis; her parents Isidro and Maria Luisa de Vera; siblings Luzviminda (Minda), Elena (Biday), Isidro Jr. (Boy), and Corazon (Cora); and other deceased members of the de Vera and Drupals family.
