ARMANDO CHAVEZ Obituary
On Monday, February 8, 2021, Armando Chavez, a dedicated son, beloved brother and a caring uncle, passed away at the age of 76.
In 1968 Armando left Piedras Negras, Mexico to the United States in pursuit of the "American Dream". He started working for La Fonda Del Norte in San Antonio where he became the Master Chef.
