Mary Anita Jaramillo
With deepest sorrow we announce the passing of Mary A. Jaramillo on Tuesday, October
15, 2019. Mary is now sleeping in Heaven with our
Lord Jesus Christ and His Blessed Mother.
She was born September 1,
1945 in Albuquerque, NM, and was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother and friend who was deeply loved by all.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Cleofas and Flora Montano. She is survived by her angel of a husband of 51 years, Aladin Joe Jaramillo; son, Adrian and girlfriend, Jennifer; brother, Joseph David Montano and girlfriend, Wanda; granddaughter, Mariah and husband, Austin; and great-grandson, Gavin. Additionally, Mary had many aunts, uncles, and cousins and extended family. She had many special friends that were an integral part of her life. Time spent lunching and visiting with friends was a very special time to her.
Mary’s career spanned 30 years of service with the State of New Mexico, Employment Security Department, and NM Department of Labor. She held many administrative positions, including Chief of Human Resources and Assistant Bureau Chief of Field Operations. She was a mentor to many young women starting their careers and was known as a "no nonsense" manager. She expected dedication and hard work from her employees at the same level as she demonstrated in her positions. She attended the University of New Mexico and completed more training courses than could be listed.
She will be sorely missed by all that know her, and she will hold a special place in our hearts forever. The family is grateful and offers a sincere thank you to her doctors and nurses and staff at Presbyterian Hospital.
