I am deeply saddened by the death of Mr. Armijo. He was my high school counselor and a person who went far out of his way to help me during my rebellious teenage years. Aside from his well publicized deeds as a member of the Greatest Generation, he was a thoroughly wonderful person who was a great counselor and friend. I will surely miss him. The world has lost a great man.

Mr. Armijo, to my generation, was a hero as a teacher at FUHS. It was no surprise to me when I read his name in Tom Brokaw's book and learned he was a hero for all generations. God bless you all.
