Clarence Zimmerman

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the sudden passing of Clarence Joseph Zimmerman Jr., age 40, of Los Lunas, New Mexico, on December 17, 2025. Born on September 9, 1985, in Albuquerque, Clarence touched many lives with his warmth, caring nature, and infectious sense of humor.
Clarence was preceded in death by his beloved parents, Clarence Joseph Zimmerman Sr. and Anna Arnold, whom he cherished deeply and missed profoundly. He is survived by his devoted stepfather, Vincent Arnold, who provided guidance and support throughout his life. Clarence's memory will be forever cherished by his loving step-son, Jason Perez, and his siblings: Brian, Elisha, and Savannah (Pablo). He also leaves behind his adoring nieces and nephew: Isabella (Wesley), Stefen (Arely), Miquella, and Mariana, who will always remember his playful spirit and encouragement. He is fondly remembered by his grandmother, Dora Garcia-a constant source of wisdom and strength. Clarence also leaves behind his uncles Daniel, Aaron, and Michael (Pam), as well as cousins Aaron (his wife Jessica and their daughter Robin), and Adam (his daughter Sabrina). The love and connection among his large extended family was something Clarence treasured deeply.
Clarence is also survived by Krystal Hughes, his beloved partner in crime for 19 years. Together, they shared a life filled with love, laughter, and unwavering support, standing by each other through every chapter of their journey. Clarence was a friend to all, known for his kindness, compassion, and willingness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. His laughter brought light to the darkest days, and his stories could always be counted on to put a smile on your face. Whether spending time with family, catching up with friends, or reaching out to help a neighbor, Clarence's presence left a lasting, positive impression. His legacy lives on through the countless memories he created with those he loved. He will be remembered not only for his quick wit and joyful spirit but also for his unwavering loyalty, gentle heart, and the strength he showed in the face of life's challenges. Clarence taught us all the importance of loving unconditionally, showing empathy, and finding reasons to smile each day.
We are deeply grateful to the family, friends, and neighbors who have offered comfort and support during this difficult time. Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to the Los Lunas Police Department, Los Lunas Fire Department, and the EMTs who responded so swiftly and compassionately the morning of his passing.
