ARMIJO -- Jose Antonio "Tony" Armijo, 84, was called to rest on Wednesday, October 21st 2009. Preceded in death by his wife, Lilly (Van Damme) Armijo, and his daughter Toni Louise, Tony is survived by his eight children: daughter Barbara Charrette, son Steven Armijo and his wife Beverly of Taos, NM, daughter MaryAnn Perry and her husband Jerry, son Joseph (Jake) Armijo and his wife Beelien, son Chris Armijo and his wife Linda, son John Armijo, daughter Cathy Najar and her husband Andrew, and daughter Joanne Lovato and her husband Patrick. Tony is survived by 32 grandchildren and 43 great-grandchildren. Tony was preceded in death by both of his parents, WWI veteran Guadalupe Armijo and his wife Rita Garcia, as well as three of his brothers, Frank, Cipriano, and Uvaldo Armijo. He is survived by four sisters and four brothers: sister Chonita Lucero and husband Ramon, sister Albinita Lucero of San Antonio, TX, sister Dora Gurule, sister Lydia Santillanes and her husband Dave, brother Jimmy Armijo and his wife Virginia, brother Clyde Armijo, brother Ernest Armijo and his wife Nora of Haywood, CA, and brother David Armijo and his wife Licia of Alamogordo, NM. Sorrow in Tony's death can be diminished by the joy of his remarkable life; born in Corrales, NM in 1925, he grew up among 11 siblings. As a young child he planted and harvested fruits and vegetables, (often from sunrise to sunset), beginning a work ethic that never left him. In his teens, he worked at the Moore Drydock & Shipbuilding Co. in Oakland, CA as a sheet metal worker, a job that led him to serve with the Merchant Marines in the South Pacific during the first part of WWII. After completing his tour with the Merchant Marines, he returned to the US where he married his lovely wife Lilly, but was subsequently drafted by the US Army where he served out the remaining part of the war in Germany. Returning to New Mexico he worked first as a chauffer, then as roofer, and later as a sheet metal worker for Van Damme Sheet Metal Works on Mountain Rd. From 1952 to 1969 he expanded his metalworking skills with Sandia National Laboratories. In 1969 Tony started his own sheet metal company, A & G Heating. His knowledge was passed to a multitude of individuals that continue to support their families with the trades to this day. In 1996 he co founded Four Winds Mechanical with his sons. In addition to passing along skills in the trades, he also taught countless people how to hunt, fish, camp and survive in the wilderness and the rest of the world. Thank you, Daddy Tony, for all the love, life, and blessings. A viewing will be held on Friday, October 23rd, 2009 at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church located at 4020 Lomas Blvd at 6:00 pm, with a rosary immediately following at 7:00 pm.
