Daniel Sedillo Obituary
Daniel Sedillo, Born 1945 in Socorro and died April 1, 2024 in Albuquerque, NM.
Daniel was a beloved member of his family, a wonderful father and faithful friend to many. He served in the US Army, and later completed his degree in University Studies at UNM. He taught industrial arts briefly and then began working for the NM state department of labor where he eventually retired.
Daniel was our modern day Renaissance Man: He could make or fix anything mechanical or electrical, he was a registered clown; long-time woodworker, served as a bartender and volunteered as a Karaoke at Senior Centers and at Sandia Ridge Long-term Care Facility where his sister Janis resides. He loved to sing; either at karaoke or in church choirs.
Daniel was preceded in death by his parents, Roque Ramos Sedillo and Martina Silva Sedillo. He is survived by his two children Patrick (with wife Simone) and his daughter Victoria; and his two granddaughters Stella and Sophie Sedillo, his siblings Orlando and wife Jeanette Sedillo, sister Sylvia Sedillo, SL, sister Rosina and husband Jack Sena, and sister Janis Sedillo. He is missed but we look forward in faith to see him again. In lieu of flowers or donations, please do an act of kindness in his memory.
There will be two events to celebrate his passing, a funeral with prayer service at Santa Fe National Cemetery on Thursday, June 13, 2024 at 11am, and a celebration of life at Elena Gallegos open space facility (Kiwanis shelter) in Albuquerque on Friday, June 14, 2024 at 11am. (Casual dress - as he would like it.) We look forward to reminiscing about the wonderful man he was with family and friends.

I recently heard about Danny´s passing. He hired me at NMDOL during a time when I really needed an opportunity in the early 1990´s. He was a smart, caring gentleman. My deepest condolences to the family for your loss.

My deepest and heartfelt condolences to the family of Danny. I was fortunate to have worked with him at NM Dept. of Labor many years ago. He went over and beyond to assist with anything and everything. He predicted in the 90's that our work assignments would be found in an inbox through a new system of technology that did come to pass in 2013. How he knew that would take place is beyond me!! Rest in peace Danny and we will you again in eternal Glory!!!
