Armando Jasso

ARMANDO JASSO, 67, angel of love went to peaceful rest on Saturday, February 22, 2014 at his home surrounded by his family and many who loved him. An avid ?49ers?fan, a military veteran, ?Hippie? or ?Ironman? as he was fondly known. He was born October 27, 1946, to Adan Jordan Jasso and Marina Jasso. Blessed with a big compassionate heart and a strong faith that helped sustain him, Armando remained a compassionate man, a faithful husband, a loving father, a protective brother, a caring grandfather, and a great friend until his last breath. ?Ironman? as you join Mom, Dad, and your beloved son, Jorge in Gold?s Glory you leave, many who love you and will miss you. We thank God for the beautiful gift of you and rejoice in having shared your life, for we know this is not goodbye ? merely a short separation until we receive God?s blessing and we see each other again. We will love you forever, you remain in our memories and our hearts always.
