Armando Fuentes

Armando Fuentes Aranda was born on June 27, 1959 in the city of Delicias, Chihuahua, Mexico to Jose Fuentes Mendoza and Herlinda Aranda Cervantes, where he attended elementary school. At a young age, he began working to earn his living alongside his five siblings — Jose, Santos, Enrique, Guillermo, and Martina Fuentes.

Years later, he met, fell in love, and married Maria Olivas Fierro. Together they formed a family consisting of Raymundo, Jose, Crystal, and Orlando Fuentes. Through thick and thin, they raised their children in the town of Dell City, Texas for over forty years, living from agriculture.

Armando enjoyed repairing and fabricating anything he could. His curiosity for the unknown led him to woodworking and fixing anything that needed repairs. He left a legacy by passing along all his knowledge to his children, who in turn will continue to share it with his 15 grandchildren.
