Eddy Lee's Memmorial


Red River Cemetery Entrance
Red River, NM

Red River Cemetery, Red River, New Mexico located on north side of New Mexico State Hwy. 38. West of the town of Red River across from the Red River RV Park.  There are highway road signs for the Red River Cemetery.  If the gate is unlocked you can drive right in or you can walk in using the area just left of the closed gate.


The Red River Cemetery is very historical with many unmarked graves.

There are 2 parts to this cemetery.  One below and one across, east side, with a road going up to beautiful overlook.  The upper cemetery is now full.  The city is now acquiring additional burial lots below.

Eddy Lee is buried in the family plot with maternal Grandparents.  You can see the family plot on the west side of the little dirt road.

Eddy Lee Bullington, 40, of Red River passed away on February 22, 2006. He was a local musician for many years. He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, Jo Fasnacht and Edward L. Fasnacht, paternal grandparents, Gene and Sophie Bullington, numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. He is survived by his children, Jordan Taylor and Makenna Monet Bullington, parents, Bob and JoLene Bullington all of Red River, brother, Robert Lynn Bullington Jr. (Laura) of Alamosa, CO and niece, Autumn Lanning Bullington.

Eddy Lee's parents maintained and improved the Red River Cemetery from the early 2000 until present day. However, to continue on the Bullington's are looking to retire from this endeavor and must pass the torch onto others. They had volunteers help and of course Red River Township supported during this endeavor and very thankful for their efforts.
