Our most sincere condolences to his wife Maria Goitia, children and grandchildren, other family and friends.

Clemente Balunda was born on November 14, 1925 in Eugi , Navarra.

He came to America in 1953 and worked as a shepherd in the Butte’s mountain range. He also worked for the Corp of Engineer’s and became a lock master. After five years in this country he met and married the love of his life, Miren Goitia and together they had 2 sons.

My father was an outstanding man. He was honest, responsible, honorable and kind. He became the president of the Spanish Club Iberico and help his community for over forty years. His wisdom and good nature were his signature.

He loved traveling around the world , but his heart was always in the Basque Country.

His legacy is one to cherished. At the end of his life he enjoyed spending time with his family remembering the many adventures he had in his long life.

We will truly miss his smile and kind demeanor.
