The Lord took Mima to be with him at age 84. Arminda was born on Nov. 14, 1932 in El Paso, Texas to her parents, Salvador and Pura Gomez. Arminda has two brothers and two sisters. She married the love of her life, James La Point on Feb. 9, 1957 in Los Angeles. They had three beautiful children together: Charles La Point, David La Point and Kathy Fortenberry. Arminda went to nursing school and became a registered nurse. She was a great nurse to all. She made friends with everyone and was loved by all. She resided in Lake Havasu City for the last two years. Before that, she and her husband lived in Mohave Valley for 40 years.
