Guillermo Garcia Obituary

Guillermo "Memo" Garcia

I would like to share a little but about the man who we honoring. My husband, Memo known to his friends as Tank, was the most selfless person I could have ever imagined. We are talking about a man who loved with all his heart, gave all he had, fulfilled all his promises, and enjoyed every second of life. His smile was contagious and his love was infectious, when he was around there was never a dull moment. He would make everyone better by just being around him.

I don't think that there will ever be any man that would be capable of being a better husband, father, and friend, he was perfect. And what can I say, man he was TOUGH. These past 8 and a half months were harsh to say the least, and yet he still blessed us with jokes, smiles, songs, and laughter. He held on as long as he could to bless us just a little more and he did it out of pure love. When I thought of a warrior I would imagine a man on a horse with a sword but my warrior was a 6 foot 3 inch gentle giant with a heart of gold, who's hugs were warming to everyone.

He blessed me with 16 years of memories and 2 precious gifts, Karina and Memo, which will always keep him alive. During these years together we had many ups and downs but we always came out stronger and I believe that these struggles prepared us for these last few months. These past few months we did it together, I pushed and he fought. With the help of his troops he won many battles but in the end WE lost the war. I told my kids that we did not lose him we just gained an angel and now we need to make him proud like he has always made us proud. We are TANK-TOUGH. This is not a goodbye mi amor, te amo.

Services will be hold on Monday 5/11/20 from 5 pm to 8 pm (a rotation of ten people will be applied according to established guidelines) at Perches East Funeral Home.

If someone wishes to send flower arrangements, please do so to Funeral Perches East Funeral Home - 2280 Joe Battle Blvd. (915) 849-8185






Guillermo "Memo" García. Me gustaría compartir un poco sobre el hombre que hoy honramos. Mi esposo Memo, conocido por sus amigos como Tank, fue la persona más desinteresada que pude haber imaginado. Estamos hablando de un hombre que amó con todo su corazón, dio todo lo que tenía, cumplió todas sus promesas y disfrutó cada segundo de su vida. Su sonrisa y su amor eran contagiosos, cuando estabas cerca de él nunca había un momento aburrido. Él mejoraría a todos con solo estar cerca de él. No creo que haya un hombre capaz de ser un mejor esposo, padre y amigo. Él era perfecto. Y qué puedo decir, vaya, era DURO. Estos últimos ocho meses y medio fueron duros, por decir lo menos, y aun así nos bendijo con bromas, sonrisas, canciones y risas. Aguantó todo el tiempo que pudo para bendecirnos un poco más y lo hizo por puro amor. Cuando pensaba en un guerrero, me imaginaba a un hombre a caballo con una espada, pero mi guerrero era un gran gigante de 6 pies y 3 pulgadas con un corazón de oro, cuyos abrazos eran cálidos para todos. Me bendijo con 16 años de recuerdos y dos regalos preciosos, Karina y Memo, quienes siempre lo mantendrán con vida. Durante estos años juntos tuvimos muchos altibajos, pero siempre salimos más fuertes y creo que estas luchas nos prepararon para estos últimos meses. En los últimos meses lo hicimos juntos, lo empujé y él luchó. Con la ayuda de sus tropas ganó muchas batallas, pero al final perdimos la guerra. Les dije a mis hijos que no lo perdimos, solo ganamos un ángel y ahora necesitamos hacerlo sentir
orgulloso como siempre nos hizo sentir orgullosos. Estamos TANK-TOUGH. Este no es un adiós mi amor, te amo. Los servicios serán en un momento privado para la familia el miércoles 29 de abril del 2020. Si alguien desea enviar arreglos florales, por favor hágalo a Funeral Perches East Funeral Home, en el 2280 Joe Battle Blvd., teléfono (915) 849-8185.
