He is proceeded in death by his parents, Raul and Raquel Garcia, two brothers, Raul Jr, and Rudy Garcia, and his brother-in-law David Miranda. He was employed for many years by J.W.

He instilled grit, strength, determination, compassion and confidence in his girls. He was fun, loving and always had a joke. He will be missed by all who knew him.

Our Dad has taught us to make light out of the toughest of times. While he may be gone, his unique sense of humor will carry on…. thanks to his soon to be repurposed prosthetic legs that we plan to make lamps and flower planter.
