Johnny Armijo

Johnny U. Armijo, age 46, passed away on December 03, 2017 in Albuquerque, New Mexico. John was born on March 26, 1971 in Albuquerque, New Mexico to his loving parents Diego and Clara Armijo. John attended Rio Grande High School, where he received his High School Diploma. On October 13th, 1996 John married his beloved wife Georgia Armijo, they were married for over 21 years, and shared more than 27 blessed years together. John worked at Valley Fence Company where he worked tirelessly to support his family. Johnny was known for his amazing work ethic and his commitment to the company for over 25 years. John enjoyed roping, going camping, being with his horses and animals. He also enjoyed being surrounded by his family any chance he got. He was a member of the Seventh Day Adventist Church, that’s where his love for the Lord grew greater with his whole heart. He was very thankful that his father in law, Marino Chavez loved him and brought him to a relationship with the Lord. He worked faithful to spread his love for the Lord daily to countless family members, friends and anyone he met.

John’s favorite Quote was by Garth Brooks “I could have missed the pain but I'd have had to miss the dance.”

Johnny was a devoted husband, father, son, brother and friend. His heart was huge and all who knew him loved him. He will be greatly missed by all who loved him dearly.

Mr. Armijo was preceded in death by both of his parents Diego and Clara Armijo; his brothers Eddie Brito and Michael Armijo.

He is survived by his wife Georgia Armijo; his daughter Amanda Armijo and soon to be son in law Alex Apodaca; his sisters Joanne Sedillo and husband Andrew; Sadie Ann Ferrar and husband Marty all from Albuquerque, New Mexico; his sister Dianne Moya and husband Gene of Chilili, New Mexico; his brothers Andrew Brito; Diego Armijo Jr. and wife Louisa both of Albuquerque, New Mexico; several nieces and nephews as well as numerous beloved pets and animals.
