Amancio Michael Hernandez,
known as Mike, of Grand
Junction, CO, died on Friday,
August 21, 2020, at the age 67.
Mike died in his sleep of natural
causes.
Mike was born December 13,
1952, in Cheyenne, Wyoming,
the son of Lucille and Louis
Hernandez. He graduated from Estancia High School in Costa
Mesa, CA, was a US Army Veteran, and an artist.
Mike loved fishing, watching the Colorado Rockies and Broncos,
and nothing made him happier than drawing pencil sketches and
painting. He had a great fondness for cats and volunteered to take
care of them at the animal shelter.
Mike was preceded in death by his parents, Lucille and Louis
Hernandez, and oldest brother, Edward Louis Hernandez (1971).
Mike is survived by his siblings, Linda and husband, Alejandro
Pena of Santa Ana, California; Mark and wife, Linda Hernandez of
Noonan, Texas, and numerous relatives.
The family gives a large thanks to Brenda Fhuere and Dedee, of
the VA Ranger Program.
There will be no services (at his directive). Please raise a
toast to him with either your favorite ice cream, or walk in your
