Our beloved, Arthur “Arty” Ambriz Jr., entered eternal rest on Friday, July 1, 2022, surrounded by his loving family. Arty, age 38, was a talented artist and the most dedicated dad to his only son, Jedidiah “Jedi” Ambriz. Arty was born in Silver City, NM, on May 13, 1984, to Carla Turrey and Arthur “Tudy” Ambriz. His family raised him in Las Cruces, NM, until Arty’s 7th-grade year. The family then moved to Santa Clara, NM. He made many friends when he moved. In his younger years, he enjoyed breakdancing and low-rider bikes. He was always clean-cut and fresh-pressed in his style to this day. Arty has four siblings, Carlos, Anissa, Nikkita, and Sofia. His sister, Anissa, best described him as a protector, the best dad a child could ask for, a person with a heart of gold, a contagious smile, and the sickest dance moves.
He is survived by his son Jedi, his parents, Carla Turrey and Tudy (Eileen) Ambriz, and his siblings, Carlos Ambriz, Anissa Ambriz, Nikkita Nuanes, and Sofia Nunez. Grandparents, Frances and Ambrosio “Bocho” Ambriz. Aunts and uncles, Blanca Turrey, Henry Turrey (Susie, AKA, Linda), Titus Turrey, Henry Ambriz (Sandra), and David Ambriz, (Tina). Cousins; Niko Turrey, Levi Turrey, Ashley De La Torre, Cristy Carpenter, Kenny Carpenter, Marissa Ambriz, Leo Ambriz, Ashley Dunbar, Brianna Ambriz, and Matthew Ambriz. Loved by numerous nieces and nephews, second cousins, and friends of the family that he grew up with that are too many to list. He was preceded in death by his grandparents, Henry and Rita Turrey. Infant uncle, Tobias Turrey. Brother, Nathaniel Sanchez. We all loved him more than words could express.
The Holy Rosary is to be recited by family starting at 9:30am at Santa Clara Catholic Church on Friday, July 15th. The Mass of Christian Burial is to be officiated by Father Martin Okonkwo at 10:30am. The Rite of Committal and Inurnment will follow at Santa Clara cemetery. Pallbearers will be Ashley De La Torre, Cristy Carpenter, Levi Turrey, Carlos Ambriz, Anissa Conchita Ambriz, and Niko Turrey.
Cremation will take place at Terrazas Crematory.
