Beatrice DELPH Obituary
Who was born in El Paso, TX, to immigrant parents Ernesto G Garcia (Guanajuato, MX) and Belen Delgado (Durango, MX) on September 30, 1931, passed away on September 24, 2021, in Tucson, AZ.

In spite of being from a Hispanic family, Beatrice was the first family member to graduate from the University of Arizona in 1954 majoring in biology before marrying in a
non-traditional ceremony in May of 1954. She went onto have a successful thirty-year career working in the Dayton, OH, Community Blood Bank. She also volunteered for various churches in the Dayton Catholic Diocese and the Habitat for Humanity. She left a legacy of being an educated Hispanic woman with a well-established career, a loyal wife and
dedicated mother who found time to invest in her
community. This legacy will be celebrated in a Funeral Mass in her honor on Monday, October 11, 2021, at 10:00 AM at Holy Trinity Church, 272 Bainbridge St., Dayton, OH. Burial in
Calvary Cemetery will follow the Mass.
