Michaelangelo Lawrence Trujillo
April 2, 1949 — May 17, 2020
In loving memory of Michaelangelo L. Trujillo (Rocky), 71. Passed away peacefully on May 17, 2020 at his home in Denver Colorado, after spending the day with his loved ones.
Michaelangelo was born on April 2, 1949 in Center Colorado to Lawrence (Larry) and Cleotilde (Tillie) Trujillo. He was the second born out of seven children (Diana Martinez; Laura Romero; Richard Trujillo; Elizabeth Jones; Donnalee Johnson; Russell Trujillo).
Michaelangelo served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War and was honorably discharged on July 1, 1974. He became a member of the Local 501 Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) where he had celebratory drinks weekly with his fellow brothers.
Michaelangelo is survived by his wife Patricia, his brother Russell Trujillo and two sisters Laura Romero and Donnalee.
His son Michael Trujillo, Daughter-in-law Gina Trujillo and Grand Children, Lauren B. Trujillo, Michaelangelo L. Trujillo III, Trinity T. Trujillo, Jocelyn Padilla and Mario Padilla.
His son Marcanthony L. Trujillo and Daughter-in-law Jessica Gonzales.
Michaelangelo will always be remembered as the Man, the Legend, the one everybody loved. His smile and charisma will leave an everlasting impression to everyone that knew him.
He left his heart and soul with his family, especially with his sons Michael and Marcanthony. They both will carry on his strength, love and name.
In words of the ROCK, "forgetaboutit", "It's all about love" and "just because I'm gone, it doesn't mean I still don't have things to do". To all that loved me…… just know, "The ROCK is in the house", "that's amore" "God Bless" and "God help us".

Footprints in the Sand:
One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.
After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I carried you."
