Toby Tuan Le

Celebrating the Life of Toby Tuan Le
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Toby Tuan Le, a beloved son, devoted partner, and doting father. Toby brought a unique warmth and energy to the lives of everyone who knew him, leaving behind a legacy of love and laughter.
Family and Heritage
Toby was the cherished eldest son of his father, Son Le, and his mother, Co Tai. Being the firstborn, he took his role as the "big brother" to heart. He is survived by his younger brother, Jimmy Le, whom he loved deeply and spoke of often, and his sister, Kathy Le. Toby always admired Kathy's resilience, often saying that their mother never had to worry about her because she was "the strong one" of the family.
A Legacy of Love and Laughter
Toby's childhood was filled with stories that highlighted his deep devotion to his family. He often shared a favorite memory of his mother, whom he and Jimmy thought was the most beautiful woman in the world.
He recounted a day when Co Tai made them ginger tea; Jimmy looked at Toby and declared, "I'm marrying Mom!" Toby was so upset he hadn't said it first that a brotherly scuffle broke out. In the end, Toby played his ultimate big-brother trump card: "I'm the oldest!" It was a story he loved to tell, reflecting the pure love he had for his mother and the playful bond he shared with his brother.
A Devoted Father and Partner
While Toby wore many hats, his favorite role by far was being a father to his daughter, Emma. He loved her beyond measure, and their bond was filled with joy and inside jokes. He often shared with a smile that her favorite name for him was "Daddy Dinosaur." Toby is also survived by his partner and soulmate, Ashleah Maestas. While Toby loved his family fiercely, he made it known that being with Ashleah was where he felt most at home. He often told her, "Now that I have you, there is no way I'm letting go." It was a promise he lived by every day, building a life with her based on deep affection and an unbreakable bond.
Remembering Toby
Toby will be remembered for his kind heart, his dedication to his family, and the way his face lit up whenever anyone spoke to him. He was cherished by a wide circle of friends who loved him dearly. He had a way of making those around him feel seen and loved, whether through a kind word, a silly joke, or a shared laugh.
"To the world, he was just a man, but to his family, he was the world."
Services for Toby will take place on Wednesday, January 28, 2026, at Our Lady LaVang in Albuquerque, NM. A visitation will be held at 8:30 am, followed by a mass at 9:00 am.
Arrangements are being handled by the caring professionals at the Noblin Funeral Service Belen Chapel, where an online guest register is available at www.noblin.com
