Ray Michael Carrillo, 69, of Silver City passed away February 5, 2024 in El Paso, TX. 

Ray was born July 28, 1954 in Albuquerque, NM to Nick and Louisa Carrillo.  Ray had been a resident of Silver City for about the last 40 years.  Although Ray was a special needs person, he never failed to be an awesome brother, always happy and all smiles.  Ray loved travelling to Albuquerque to one of his favorite destinations, The Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta.  Some of Ray’s other favorite pastimes were watching and attending rodeos.  He was an avid bowler as well, spending a lot of time at the bowling alley.

Ray leaves behind many loved ones, including the staff at Lessons of Life who are going to miss him dearly. 

At the request of the family, a celebration of Ray’s life will be at Twelve o’clock noon on Saturday, February 17, 2024 at the Silver City Elks Lodge #413, 4051 NM-90 across from the Silver City Humane Society, followed by a potluck lunch.
