Robert Anthony Montoya, 32, a resident of Hurley, NM entered eternal rest Thursday, October 17, 2024 at Gila Regional Medical Center in Silver City, NM. He was born October 18, 1991 to his parents Robert Barragan and Patricia Montoya in Silver City, NM.
As a child, Robert was a sports fanatic, playing baseball, football, karate and boxing. His number 1 hobbies were listening to music and playing his guitar. He had a passion of drawing and he enjoyed playing his video games with his primo, "Pinch_ Larry." He worked doing landscaping, he loved the outdoors, and loved fishing, camping and hanging out with friends. Robert was always putting things together and always had a project going. Robert definitely lit up a room with his amazing smile and contagious laugh. And when people met him…they loved him and his gentle spirit. He was always making jokes and making people laugh… he would also jump up to help and assist anyone in need. Robert was truly a God-fearing and forgiving man, choosing to constantly study his bible and scriptures over his phone rather than being on social media. He gave his life to Christ and was baptized at the Bayard Baptist Church on June 23, 2024 with Pastor Sykes and was a man of God. He was planning on furthering his education to better himself and to show his baby girl, Adela, how important school is in life, but now he will forever be her guardian angel.
