Juliet Eve Domingo was born on October 28, 1970 in Belize City, Belize to Flora Domingo and the late Alvin Domingo. The fourth of nine children, she was born into a loving and disciplined Christian family. As a child, Juliet was friendly, outgoing, witty, and smart. She attended All Saints Primary School in Belize, where she excelled at her studies. Never settling for second best, Juliet often placed first in her class. The family can recall fond memories of fellow students wanting to gain an edge by sitting next to Juliet. Lets just say some would copy her every move. Juliet would later earn a scholarship to Saint Catherines Academy one of Belizes top private high schools. There, she continued to excel in her studies while also contributing as a strong player on her schools softball team. Her achievements were many but she remained grounded. Because of this, Juliet was a joy to be around. Perhaps her greatest moment in Belize is when she decided to put on Christ in baptism and became a member of the Church of Christ. She loved singing and fellowship, and made it a point to study Gods word and was dedicated to the faith.
Because her parents dreamed of providing a better life with more opportunities for the family, Juliet would soon relocate to the United States. By 1985, at the age of 14, she and the family arrived in Los Angeles, CA. Juliet attended Los Angeles High School, where she continued to study hard, and played sports such as tennis and softball. As a teenager, Juliet was always very protective of her siblings. Several of her siblings can recall an incident that occurred shortly after the family had arrived in Los Angeles. New and unfamiliar in the neighborhood, Juliet and several of her brothers and sisters went out for a jog. On their way back home, they were cornered by a group of the neighborhood kids. Although a sweet person, Juliet was not to be messed with. Not wavering and not afraid, she stood up to the large group of bullies in honor of her brothers and sisters, until the rowdy group backed down and retreated cowardly. It was like a scene from a Kung Fu movie. Juliet believed in treating people the way she expected to be treated with fairness, trustworthiness, and respect.
By the end of high school, Juliet had participated in a work study program which would prepare her for a professional career in banking. While attending Los Angeles City College, she maintained gainful employment at then, Home Savings, now known as Chase Bank. She would go on to work at several other financial institutions, all while maintaining straight As throughout college. During this time, she met and married her then husband, Howard Griffiths Sr. and gave birth to her only child, Howard Griffiths Jr. Juliet continued her education at the University of Southern California. Her desire to have a more fulfilling career, as well as her compassion for others also lead her to the Medical field. Since 2007, she has worked for organizations such as Kaiser Permanente, UCLA Medical Center, and most recently, Cedars Sinai Medical Center, where she forged meaningful friendships.
Throughout her time living in Los Angeles, Juliet continued as a faithful member of Gods Church. She was a member of the Figueroa Church of Christ, and later pledged her membership at the Altadena Church of Christ, where her father, the late Alvin Domingo once ministered. Juliet was a kind, smart, funny, and strong individual who will truly be missed. Her legacy will continue to be cherished by her son, Howard Griffiths Jr., her mother, Flora Domingo, her brothers and sisters, Kurt, Karen, Laura, Marsha, Tyrone, Wayne, Reuel, and Andrea, a host of nieces and nephews, cousins, friends and church family.
