Aztec

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Miguel Angel Tapia Munoz, who departed from this world on June 23, 2024, in Aztec, New Mexico surrounded by his family. Miguel was born on May 7, 1940, in Buenavura, Mexico to Francisca Munoz and Martimiano Tapia. Our father was a responsible man who loved his family and who, without fail, made sure that we never lacked for anything. 

 He was always there for his children, and he was proud of us. He was a hardworking, intelligent, and humble man who loved music, dancing, and his horses. He had a wonderful, joyous personality that brought happiness to everyone around him. Farming was a huge part of who he was, and he truly enjoyed tending to his crops. He will be dearly missed.

 Miguel leaves behind a legacy of love, hard work, and sincerity that will be cherished by all who knew him. He will be deeply missed by his family and friends.

 Miguel is survived by seven children who have brought several children and grandchildren into life:

 Eldest son, Reynaldo Tapia, and wife Susana Torres and their children Edgar Tapia, Ivan Tapia, Azucena Tapia and grandchildren Sofia Tapia, Lucas Tapia, and Sadie Tapia. 

 Second born son, Gilberto Tapia, and wife Maria Guadalupe Tapia along with their children Noel Tapia, Daisy Tapia, and Braian Tapia. 

 Third son, Enrique Tapia, and his wife Maria del Carmen Ramirez along with their children Yadria Tapia and Rene Tapia. 

 First born daughter, Madel R. Rios and husband Daniel Rios along with their children Daniel Rios (Mystri Hipsher) and their child Tynziee Rios, Alex Rios (Meghan Rios) and their children Arielle Rios and Octavia Rios, Anthony Rios (Alyssa Rios), and Mason Miguel Rios. 

 Second born daughter, Maria Elizabeth Tapia Diaz and her children Angel Sigala, Anyelinna Sigala, and Axel Sigala. 

 Fourth born son, Juan Carlos Tapia and his wife Maribel Ontiveros along with their children Michael Tapia, Alexandro Tapia, and Camila Tapia. 

 Third born daughter, Dalila Tapia Diaz and her husband Eleazar Cera along with their children Alyne K. Tapia, Maximo A. Vasquez, and Nailah D. Cera.

 He is also survived by sisters Nacha Tapia, Julieta Tapia, Alejandrina Tapia, and Eva Tapia.

 Miguel is welcomed home in heaven by his predeceased wife Maria Del Rosario Diaz Duarte, his brother Eginio Tapia, and his sisters Tere Tapia, Enedina Tapia, Anna Tapia, Lola Tapia, Romana Tapia, and Alicia Tapia. 

 Miguel's life was a tapestry woven with love, laughter, and dedication—a legacy that will live on through the generations. May he rest in peace knowing he was deeply loved and will be fondly remembered by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Con gran pesar anunciamos el fallecimiento de Miguel Ángel Tapia Muñoz, quien partió de este mundo el 23 de junio de 2024 en Aztec, Nuevo México, rodeado de su familia. Miguel nació el 7 de mayo de 1940 en Buenavura, México, hijo de Francisca Muñoz y Martimiano Tapia. Nuestro padre era un hombre responsable que amaba a su familia y que, sin falta, se aseguraba de que nunca nos faltara nada.

 Siempre estuvo ahí para sus hijos y estaba orgulloso de nosotros. Era un hombre trabajador, inteligente y humilde que amaba la música, el baile y sus caballos. Tenía una personalidad maravillosa y alegre que traía felicidad a todos los que lo rodeaban. La agricultura era una gran parte de su personalidad y realmente disfrutaba cuidando sus cultivos. Lo extrañaremos mucho.

 Miguel deja un legado de amor, trabajo duro y sinceridad que será apreciado por todos los que lo conocieron. Su familia y amigos lo extrañarán profundamente.

 Segunda hija, María Elizabeth Tapia Díaz y sus hijos Angel Sigala, Anyelinna Sigala y Axel Sigala.

Cuarto hijo, Juan Carlos Tapia y su esposa Maribel Ontiveros junto con sus hijos Michael Tapia, Alexandro Tapia y Camila Tapia.
