Armando Salazar, 59, of Victoria entered into eternal rest on Friday, March 4, 2022.  He was born February 25, 1963 in Lamesa to Gregorio and Josefa Salazar.

He is survived by the love of his life, Graciela Lisa Rodriguez Salazar, and they were united in marriage on July 9, 2017.

His most precious life will forever be cherished by his father, Gregorio Salazar; his children, Jason Burmeister, Jennifer Murillo (Jeremy), Matthew Salazar (Sylvia), Kevin Salazar (Maranda), Amanda Salazar, Armando Salazar Jr., Minnie Ramirez (Mary), Julio Rodriguez, and Fernando Rodriguez; grandchildren, Caitlynn, Jamara, Javon, Kaleb, Cameron, Sabrina, Katherine, Grayson Arturo, Mayliyah, Grayson Will, Adilynn, Christian, Ava and Martin; brothers, Rodolfo (Debbie), Gregorio Jr. (Virginia), Daniel (Raquel) and James (Blanca); sisters, Diana (Eusebio), Rebecca (Raymond), Blanca (Carlton), Linda (Kent) and many beloved nieces and nephews.

He will be missed by all whose life he touched.  He was preceded in death by his mother, Josefa Vela Salazar; daughter, Christine Ann Salazar and great-grandson, Royal Zay Burmeister-Hernandez.

He was a true and faithful servant of our Lord and will be deeply missed by many.  He touched the lives of so many by praying for them and giving his testimony.  He loved deeply and the love for his family and friends never wavered.  He would give you anything he had, even the shirt off his back.  He was always centered on Jesus and family and even if you weren't family, he would adopt you as an honorary member.  He had so much love to give and never let anyone go without telling them how much he loved them.  He loved fiercely and deeply and we take comfort in knowing that Armando is now at peace surrounded by those he loved that parted before him.

Visitation will be held Tuesday, March 8, 2022, 5:00 – 7:00 pm at Freund Funeral Home.  Funeral Services will be Wednesday, March 9, 2022, 10:00 am at The Good Shepherd Church with Pastor Miguel Hernandez and Pastor Julio Vela officiating.  Interment will follow at Hillside Cemetery.
