Pedro M. Delgado, a life-long resident of Clifton, entered into eternal rest Saturday morning, December 10, 2022, in Verde Lee, with family members at his side. Pedro was born to Roberto Tarango and Conrado Delgado in Morenci Arizona. He was 94 years young.
In his passing, Pedro is reunited with the love of his life and wife of over 75 years, Enedina Delgado. Pedro and Enedina were both nicknamed as “Popo and Nana” by their eldest grandchild Sonja. These names have been affectionately used by family members and friends for over 50 years.
Pedro was a man of many talents and trades. He enjoyed staying active and working hard. Pedro spent countless hours on vehicle repairs and maintenance and working on home improvement projects that included carpentry, electrical, welding, and concrete masonry work.
