Kyle Shane Kauyedauty

Kyle Shane Kauyedauty, 20, of Albuquerque, NM, passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, February 1, 2022, following a lengthy hospital stay.

Kyle was born June 10, 2001, in Albuquerque, to Denise Campos and the late Charles Kauyedauty. He was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder as a child and was lovingly cared for at home by his mother.

Kyle was happiest in the water, often taking long baths and spending hours in the pool. He loved music, dancing, watching Sesame Street and Blues Clues, coloring, collecting rubber duckies, hunting for Easter eggs and playing with his toys. Some of his favorite foods were chicken nuggets, gummy worms and our mom's spaghetti. The youngest of five siblings, Kyle was a very loved and happy boy.

In addition to his father, Charles, who passed away November 28, 2019; he was preceded in death by his grandmother, Dolores Campos, on June 23, 2021; and uncle, Ronald Kauyedauty.

Kyle is survived by his mother, Denise; grandfather, Eduardo Campos of Cedar Crest; sisters, Nicole Glaze of Smock, Penn., and Amanda (Emiliano) Prado of Apple Valley, Calif.; brothers, Richard Glaze of Sandia Park, and Brandon Kauyedauty of Albuquerque; aunt, Roxanne (Lisa Tapia) Campos of Sandia Park; uncle, Rodney Campos of Houston, Texas; nieces, Ava and Mikayla Prado; paternal grandmother, Jolene Kauyedauty of Albuquerque; and many cousins throughout Albuquerque and Santa Rosa.

Kyle’s passing has left a huge hole in our lives and hearts. His family would like to thank everyone for the outpouring of love, support and prayers during this difficult time.

Memorial services for Kyle are pending and will be announced at a later date.
