Mementos

Margarito Salazar, born on February 22, 1950, in Phoenix, Arizona, passed away on July 4, 2024, in his hometown, leaving behind a 

legacy marked by his service and the complexities of familial bonds. Margarito spent a significant chapter of his life serving in the Marine Corps during the 1970s, a period he held dear and cherished 

throughout his years. 

 

Born to parents who preceded him in death, Margarito found solace in the memories of his upbringing and the camaraderie of military life as a Vietnam Veteran. His passing on Independence Day is a poignant reminder of his enduring pride in his service to his country and the values he upheld during his time as a Marine. He is now reunited with his brothers and sisters: Jose Salazar, Francisco 

Salazar, Evangelina Salazar Benavidez, and Vicky Valencia. He is survived his children and ex-wife brothers and sister: Nicholas Salazar, Nina Salazar, Angela Salazar, and Diane Valencia, John Salazar, Jerry Salazar,  and Leonor Lujan. 

 

As we honor Margarito's memory, we acknowledge the intricacies of a life lived with both pride and detachment. May he find peace in the memories he leaves behind, and may his children find solace in the journey ahead, guided by the lessons learned from their upbringing.
