Armando Galindo Rodriguez

Armando G. Rodriguez was born November 22, 1944, in Ft. Stockton, Texas to Elias Sr. and Juanita Rodriguez. Growing up in Ft. Stockton, he was known to many as “Chuco”, there is where he met the love of his life, Mary Rodriguez, and had three daughters: Elizabeth, Bonnie and Jeannie. There was nothing he couldn’t do, self-taught Armando could fix anything, build anything, and master any skill. He worked as a gas plant operator for Valero Energy Corporation until he retired. His passion was anything outdoors, taking his family out fishing and camping brought him joy.
