Gerardo Licea Obituary
Apr. 29, 1976 - Oct. 9, 2020
Gerardo Licea, a farmer and resident of Turlock, California, passed away unexpectedly on October 9, 2020 at the age of 44 years old.
Gerardo is survived by his father Alvaro Licea and mother Hermelinda Guevarra; his spouse of 14 years Lizzeth Licea; daughters Monsterrat Analice Licea, Gimena Lizzeth Licea, and Fatima Judith Licea; sister Andriana Licea; nephew Alvaro Licea-Parra and niece Viviana Alexandria Licea-Jimenez.
Gerardo was born in Los Angeles, California on April 29, 1976. He graduated from Turlock High School and attended Modesto Junior College. He married his wife of 14 years on September 16, 2006. On March 29, 2007; April 2, 2008, and November 20, 2011, respectively, he welcomed his three beautiful daughters, who were the most important part of his life.
Gerardo was a devoted "girl" dad. He very much enjoyed being a family man. He loved helping his daughters and nephew with their 4H activities. He loved being on the ranch along side of his father farming almonds and sweet potatoes. Gerardo had a passion for animals, he enjoyed afternoon horseback riding with his daughters, niece, and nephew. He had enough patience to teach his children and nephew how to ride well and how to make his Andalusian horses dance.
In the words of his family, he was a "die-hard" Dodgers fan. He created many great memories attending Dodgers games with his friends and family. Gerardo also enjoyed dancing with his daughters Gimena, Montserrat and Fatima. Gerardo is also remembered for being a comedian and would always make everyone laugh, and would like to play pranks on everyone. Gerardo will be greatly missed as he was the best dad any little girl can ask for and the best uncle to Viviana and Alvaro.

Our deepest sympathies. We will miss Gery stopping in for a visit and the friendly honks and waves we got when he was driving by. The neighborhood won't be the same.

Will always carry your advice on fatherhood, & will miss our long phone call routines. We should have swapped shirts that day, I love you bro. Thank you for everything you taught me.

To be known as the quintessential father for his daughters, is an honor beyond measure. Such fathers have a special place in heaven. Gerry is and will always be smiling at his girls... As the rest of us fathers continue to learn to meet his standard, God has already blessed him as he sits beside Him while he blesses his daughters as they heal and become the women he raised them to be. Comadre, God bless you as you are wonderful mother and person. You are very strong and your daughters have a lot to be thankful for. God bless you and your family.

You were the joy of our home, my best friend and soulmate. Thank you for our three beautiful baby girls and thank you so much for helping raise them to be the amazing young ladies they are today. I have some very big shoes to fill, but I promise I will do my best to continue to do what they loved doing with you. I will make sure you forever live in our hearts and that the traditions we shared continue. We love and miss you, until we meet again, love your girls.

When we were little you would never go anywhere unless you could take your little sister. You left me with a big responsibility and I promise that I will not let you down. This isn’t a goodbye. See you when I see you! Save me a seat like you have for the past 43 years. I love you!

Gerardo aka Gery, you were a great soul and lifted everybody’s spirits around you. I never looked at you like my brother-in-law. I looked at you like a new older brother that I gained. I respected and admired what a great father you were to my nieces. I strive to be like you with my boys. You will forever be in our hearts I love you.
