pugmire1 copyOn the morning of April 21, 2023 Randall Todd Pugmire went to be with his Heavenly Father. He was born April 11, 1963 to Jacque Todd Dannelly and late Tracie Joe Pugmire in Silver City NM. He grew up in Grant County where he raised boys. 

Todd graduated from Cobre High went to college in Texas. Returned to Grant County and married the love of his life Misty. He eventually completed a MAT in Education WNMU.

He always gave of his time and served as a role model for many children in the community. He coached 100’s of kids in baseball, Popwarner Football, 4H and wrestling. Coaching little league and showing animals were his favorite.

His greatest love was raising his boys and spending time with his family. Todd took pride in teaching his boys that hard work paid off and raising animals helped accomplish this.  

He worked construction to provide for his family, being a finish blade operator and dozer operator. The next chapter in life he served as a teacher. He as a teacher for 18 years, he was in Deming for 8 years and the past 10 at Silver High. He loved his students, but not the paperwork.  

He was a gentle soul and a gentleman’s gentleman. He respected everyone, always had a ready smile, unique humor and dedicated himself to helping others. He showed is love by serving others and did it from the heart. He loved his family unconditionally.      

His absence will be felt deeply especially by his surviving wife, Misty, of thirty-seven years. His oldest son Jered, Todd/Kelsey (Todd first Daughter) of Bagdad, Arizona and youngest son, Jace Randall/Jessica of Apache Junction, Arizona extra KID Tyler Findley/Siera and their children Craig, Ciaden, and Gentry.  The student he taught, boys he coached, his school, family and the many other who he touched their life.

Continue to watch over us and Fly with the Angels Randall Todd-Papa Todd-PUG-Coach.
