It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Kylee Faith Silva, also known as Ky/Toko at the young age of 17 on June 4, 2024.

Kylee, of Albuquerque and formerly of Belen, was born on Aug. 22, 2006, at Mile Marker 215 on the side of the road, delivered by her father, auntie, Kim, and grandma.

She was a bright light and had so much love to give to her family and friends. Being loved by Kylee was like having the most loyal person in your corner.

Kylee recently graduated from eCademy High School and planned to attend UNM in the fall. Throughout her young career, she was active in sports, enjoying swimming, gymnastics, basketball, volleyball and cheerleading. She may be gone from our sight, but she will never be forgotten, for her spirit will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her.
