Randy Griego Obituary
Randy was a man of strong faith and a true gentleman who enjoyed spending time outdoors, rooting on his favorite sports teams-the Denver Broncos and the Denver Nuggets, and loved most of all listening to music, especially live music. His main focus in life was his family, whom he loved with all of his heart.
Randy was extremely proud of his son, Ryan Griego, Denver, whom he laughed with, lived for and loved. He is also survived by sister Carole (George) Haidaris, Durango, brother Ed Griego, Santa Fe, NM, sister Kathy Griego, Pueblo, nieces and nephews Clayton Haidaris, Durango, Rhea Haidaris, Durango, Ricardo (Megan) Griego, Albuquerque, NM, Andra (Greg) Standley, Austin, TX, Selene Purdue, Pueblo, Arthur Aguero, Pueblo, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.
His signature gift of humor, shown through his constant smiling, laughter, joking and story-telling, will never be forgotten. Although he has passed on, Randy will live on in everyone that he touched in his 57 years with us.
A memorial service honoring Randy will be held on July 15, 2013 at 10:00 am at Full Gospel Christian Assembly, 1101 E. 7th Street, Pueblo. Online condolences may be offered at www.imperialfunerals.com.

Ryan, growing up having Uncle Randy as an uncle was so fun. I have some really fun memories of him. He was such a generous soul. He was gentile, kind, fun and spontaneous. He loved you and your mom like crazy. He was so proud of his family and his life with you and Aunt Kim. He was also proud of himself because he was a really hard worker and wanted to give you and Aunt Kim, everything. When I think back on Uncle Randy, I smile. He had a sparkle in his eyes and he could just light up a room by just walking in. I miss knowing he's no longer here in body but I know he is watching of over you and smiling at you, Ryan. You make him so proud, you always have. I love you, Ryan and I send you all my love. I'm so sorry I couldn't be there in person to say, hello and say, goodbye.

Ryan,
I am very sorry for your loss. Your dad was a great guy! I always appreciated the talks I had with your dad, with him providing advice and encouragement as a young adult. Your dad took the time for an interview with the Air Force to give me a secret security clearance. I always appreciated him as a neighbor, a boss, and a friend. My thoughts and prayers are with you. your neighbor from Lynwood

Randy my heart is filled with so many young love memories. You were my first love and after so many years I have never forgotten you or your family. My heart broke when I heard of the loss of your wife and parents. I wish I could be in Pueblo to celebrate your life and the man you became. Thank you for coming to my mothers funeral. That was the most difficult day in my life and you were there after all those years. You will always live in my heart.
God Bless your family. I will be praying for you, those you loved, today, tomorrow and always.

Dear Griego Family,
It was with a great sense of loss when I heard of Randy's death. I wanted to let you know that you have my greatest sympathy, and my heart is truly saddened. Randy was more than just a wonderful friend; he was always so kind, considerate and full of life. His contagious smile and infectious personality was always welcomed when I worked with him at Kmart. And, I know that his passing will not only leave a void in our lives, but in the hearts of all those who knew him. Randy will always remain within my heart, and I have included Randy and you in my daily prayers. May God give you strength and bless you. My sincere thoughts and prayers are with all of you.
With my deepest sympathy,

Prayers to you Ryan and your familia, I got to see your Dad at the Pantry Restaurant a couple of weeks ago, got to hug him, got to reminisce about old times, my Brother Rudy Gurule was his friend. My Father Rudolph sponsored there basketball team, and they took 2nd, we were all so proud. He used to bring over the new 45's and in our house on 2nd street we would listen on our old phonograph player. He was a sweet, handsome, friendly soul, he will be missed, I remember his walking out of the Pantry looking back at me and smiling. Take care Ryan, love always Darla Gurule, Diaz
