Our beloved wife, mother, and grandmother, Esther Trujillo Archuleta, 97, died peacefully on January 28, 2016 in Layton.

She was born June 4, 1918 in LaPuente, New Mexico to Catarino and Sedilla Manzanares Trujillo.

Married Damian (Dan) Archuleta on July 1, 1937 in Park View, New Mexico.

Mom was loved by many and she placed her family above herself and was a devoted Catholic.

She was a very caring person and an excellent cook. After her youngest child started school mom decided to work. She was employed by Bataan Memorial Hospital in Albuquerque, New Mexico in the Linen Room. The family moved to Salt Lake City, where she became supervisor over housekeeping at the Miles Hotel.

Artistic in her own way, she enjoyed carving scary and funny pumpkin faces for Halloween. She retired and loved spending time with her grandchildren. Mom, we will miss you!

She is survived by her three daughters, Jennie (Manuel) Pino, Mary (Mark) Heckle, and Vangie (JD) Jiron; daughter-in-law, Nelda Archuleta; nine grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, and nine great-great-grandchildren. Preceded in death by husband, son, Danny Archuleta; four sisters, one step-sister, and one brother.

The family would like to extend a thank you to Vanessa Weikert for her assistance in home care visits and to all family members who helped in the care of mom.

A funeral mass will be celebrated on Friday, February 5, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. in Saint Patrick Catholic Church, 1040 West 400 South. A vigil service will be held at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 4, 2016 at Neil O'Donnell and Sons Mortuary, 372 East 100 South, where friends may call from 6:00-7:00 p.m.
Committal: Mount Calvary Catholic Cemetery, 4th Avenue and "T" Street.
