Angie Trujillo Obituary

It is with great sadness that the family of Angie Trujillo announce her passing. She earned her angel wings and went to be with our Lord on March 4th, 2022, at the age of 91.

Born to Anita Aguirre Trujillo and Jose Anastacio Trujillo on October 9th, 1930. She grew up on her father's ranch outside of Pagosa Springs, CO. She met the love of her life, Herman Trujillo, while working in a cafe. Together they had 4 children: Donald, Loretta, Ben, & Toby. They moved to Durango and settled down to raise their family. Angie worked as a housekeeper but her favorite job was being a homemaker. She loved to cook and bake for others. She loved spending time with her family and her pets. Her house was always a favorite stop on Halloween and other holidays.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, children and some of her siblings.

Angie is survived by her granddaughter, Brianna Mestas (RJ), great granddaughter Angelina Mestas, sisters Emily Millich & Louisa Hale, many nieces & nephews.

She impacted a lot of people's lives and will be greatly missed. A private memorial will be held at a later date.
