Born in Fall River, Massachusetts, the Borges family then relocated to Norwalk. In the 1950’s, Armand became a proud Navy veteran serving on the USS New Jersey, traveling around the world. After Naval service, Armand worked for Keene Ray Proof Corporation as a Project Manager for many United States Embassies around the world.

As an avid outdoorsman, he had true passion for hunting, fishing, archery and downhill skiing which he passed down to his children, grandchildren, nieces and nephews.
