Pete Armendariz's Obituary
**In Loving Memory of Pete Armendariz **
With profound sadness and deep gratitude, we honor the life of Pete Armendariz—a devoted husband, nurturing father, treasured grandfather, and man whose heart beat in rhythm with both family and song.
For 42 proud years, Pete hung drywall with unwavering craftsmanship and dedication. His hands, strong from decades of work, helped build homes—but more importantly, he built a legacy of love and loyalty that will outlast any structure. Those who worked beside him knew his quiet strength, his remarkable skill, and the pride he took in every project.
Beyond the jobsite, Pete’s soul came alive through music. A gifted vocalist guitar player and cherished member of a bolero group, he strummed life’s melodies in romantic ballads that spoke of passion, longing, and timeless love. Whether performing with his group or playing for family in the glow of an evening, his music wrapped around hearts like an embrace. His voice and guitar told stories, sang dreams, and reminded everyone listening that beauty can be found in the quiet moments.
But Pete’s joy didn’t end with music—it echoed through the great outdoors. He found peace in the stillness of early mornings, waiting patiently in the woods during deer season, and excitement in casting a line across a quiet lake. Hunting and fishing weren’t just hobbies—they were sacred rituals, moments of reflection, and chances to connect with nature’s rhythm. Whether tracking game or swapping stories around a campfire, Pete embraced the wilderness with the same reverence he gave to his family and craft.
But of all his passions, nothing compared to the deep love Pete held for his family. He was the kind of man who showed up—for birthdays, for ballgames, for heart-to-heart talks. His laughter filled rooms, his wisdom anchored generations, and his unconditional support was a constant in the lives of those who called him Dad, Grandpa, and Partner.
Pete is survived by his loving family, who carry forward his rhythm, his values, and his enduring warmth.
His story will be remembered in the homes he helped raise, the songs he left behind, the trails he walked, and the hearts forever changed by his love.
