Monico was born in Las Cruces, NM on August 18, 1953 and passed peacefully on May 10, 2017 surrounded by his loved ones. Mickey moved here from Las Cruces about 47 years ago. Married to wife Romana for 45 years.
Our dad proudly served in the US Army for 10 years. Retired from truck driving due to illness.
Mickey was a generous man who opened his home and heart to so many. Dad loved to dance and sing, swim, camp and play poker. He will be remembered by his love of New Mexico chile.
