Solomon Montoya

August 29, 1943 - March 24, 2015

Beloved husband, father, brother, grandpa, and great grandpa (papa) was received into the loving arms of our Lord, his son, granddaughter, brother, and parents. Sol was born in Truchas, New Mexico Aug 29, 1943. He had 2 brothers and 1 sister, who remained close throughout the years. Sol married Clorinda Vigil on Jan 9, 1965. Together they raised 2 beautiful sons, Micheal and Billy. Throughout thick and thin he was always very proud of his sons. He celebrated 50 years of marriage with Clorinda. He loved having family and friends around him so he could tease and argue politics. Like a big kid he would make wise cracks and make everyone laugh. Sol enjoyed camping with family, vacationing with friends, and a good glass of wine with Moritz and Max. But mostly when he was able to travel he cherished the time with his grandchildren Sarah, Olivia, Sam, and later his little monkey Lennon. He was preceded in death by his son Michael, granddaughter Jessica, brother Vadio, and his parents Atanacio and Prudencia Montoya. He is survived by his wife and caregiver Clorinda, son Billy, grandchildren Sarah, Olivia, Sam and Lennon, sister Francis Rieper, brother Julian Montoya, and his extended family and friend. Services will be held at St. Joseph the Worker Catholic Church, 7405 S. Redwood Rd, West Jordan on Sat Mar 28. Visitation at 9am followed by funeral mass at 11am. The family wishes to thank Dr. Roy Gandolfi and South Mountain Dialysis for the loving care they gave our beloved Solomon. Rest in peace honey. No more pain. I’ll love you forever.
