It is with great sadness that the family of Angel Alvarado announces his passing on Monday, May 15, 2017 at the age of 52 years. His final days were spent surrounded by his beloved family. Angel was born and raised in Buffalo, NY and moved to Phoenix, AZ in 1998 where he settled to raise his family. Angel brought so much joy to everyone he encountered and his life was cut too short. He had the most infectious smile and his humor brought much joy to all of us, a true comedic. He graduated from Lafayette High School in Buffalo NY and once he moved to AZ he went on to begin his career in the armor car industry with Loomis Fargo. He is survived by his loving wife Kim, his beautiful grand-daughters Breanne Bella Alvarado, which he adopted and were the light of his world.
