Jr Robert James Michael Verdugo
Robert James Michael Verdugo Jr., of Phoenix, AZ, left us suddenly, on Tuesday, January 4, 2022, doing what he loved.
Robert had two beautiful children Alanie Lyn Verdugo & Robert Elliot Verdugo, who he cherished with all his heart and soul.
Robert was born October 31, 1995, our Halloween baby, to his parents Robert Verdugo & Jamie Lyn Kalae Hanamaikai, in Phoenix, Arizona at St. Joseph’s Hospital.
Robert worked as a Union Sheet Metal Worker, out of local Union 359, he was in school and at the top of his class. He was an up and coming Apprentice with high praise from all who knew him and worked with him.
His passion was as a Movement Artist in parkour, but he was born a B Boy, thanks to his Tio’s Alex “Bruno”, Joseph, and Richard “Richie”, showing him the way of the head spin. Robert had a passion about life and was incredibly talented as an athlete. He excelled in anything he put him mind to and worked hard to not only accomplished but master it all. He loved attending First Friday’s downtown where he would enjoy local food, art, and dance battles on the corners. He loved playing with Dinosaurs and Mario Brothers with his son Robert. His daughter Alanie shared a passion with him in all things Anime. He loved his children and was an amazing father he lived for them and will watch over them from Heaven. His one true love Imelda Rayas was always in his heart.
