Luis Gutierrez Obituary

It is with great sorrow that we announce the peaceful passing of our brother, Luis "Louie" M. Gutierrez, 54, on Sunday, July 17, 2011 at his home. He was born July 25, 1956 in Las Cruces, the second born of five children. "Louie" as he was fondly known to his family and friends, had a great love for the outdoors, riding on his boat, camping, fishing and most of all his matanzas brought him such joy. Even though he never had children of his own, he formed a close bond with a niece, Yoli Cano whom he loved as his own and a nephew, Julyn Gutierrez whom he cheered on to win the T-ball 2nd place City Champs. Louie is preceded in death by his parents, Joe and Eufilia Gutierrez. Those left to mourn his passing include three brothers, Roy Gutierrez, Gary Gutierrez and companion Michelle Janke all of Albuquerque, Peter Gutierrez and wife Sandra of Doña Ana; a sister, Judy Gutierrez-Cano also of Doña Ana. Louie was an uncle to Yoli Cano, Ina Ferguson, JD Gutierrez, Alexa Cano, Jenise and Jacob Gutierrez, Carlos Cano, Alyssa and Lily Gutierrez; great uncle to Josiah Duran, Julyn Gutierrez, Nevaeh Hernandez, Domonic Duran, Jordan Hernandez and Janelle Gutierrez. Cremation will take place and a Memorial Service will be held Thursday, July 21, 2011 at 7 PM in Baca's Chapel of Prayer, 300 E. Boutz Road with Pastor Hector Vega officiating. Inurnment of cremains will take place at a later date. Entrusted to Baca's Funeral Chapels and Baca's Sunset Crematory. 527-2222 Your exclusive providers for "Veterans and Family Memorial Care."
