Guam - The island community is mourning the loss of Juan T. Limtiaco, who passed away on Friday. The local businessman was originally from Sinajana and last resided in Agana Heights. He founded Pacific Unlimited, Inc. in 1987, which does business as Pacific Trucking Guam and Fleet Services.

Simultaneously, he had founded a bottling company called Aqua Systems which he later sold. According to Senator Michael Limtiaco, his father was 77 years old and passed away from a heart attack. He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Selita Limtiaco, and his children John, Larry, Michael and Tanya. Senator Limtiaco says his father lived life to the fullest and passed away doing what he loved which was dancing. He says what made his dad so special was he was giving and put his personal dreams aside for his children, family and friends.

Governor Eddie Calvo meanwhile released a statement saying words can't express how much respect and admiration he has for Juan Limtiaco saying he was a friend throughout the years who inspired him as a father, businessman and public servant. Governor Calvo called him a testament to the greatness of our people.

Nightly rosaries are being held at the Our Lady of Blessed Sacrament Church in Agana Heights at 7pm with funeral services this Saturday with mass at 12pm.
