George and Cordy owned and operated a general mercantile store, the “Ranchos Trading Post,” for 40+ years in Ranchos de Taos, NM.  They moved to Albuquerque in 1982 to be closer to their kids.  Aside from her incredible faith in our Lord, Cordy was very devoted to her family. She had a gracious, spunky, spirit that was loved by all who met her, and her homemade tamales were the absolute best!  She will be missed dearly.

A Rosary and Funeral Mass will be held Saturday, April 6, 2019, 10:00 a.m., at Prince of Peace Catholic Community, 12500 Carmel Ave. NE.
