Celso was a devoted Catholic, husband, father and grandfather. There was nothing he wouldn’t do for them, he was the foundation that his family was built on. He served in the Army and the National Guard. He retired as a bus driver for the City of Albuquerque.  He was a man of little words, but everything he said had wisdom, insight and humor until his very last day. 

He was our hero without a cape, the type of hero that goes unnoticed by many​, but was the knight in shining armor to those closest to him.  His everlasting strength kept our family happy and protected, and we will continue that security by keeping his legacy alive.
