Adam Garcia

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Adam Garcia, who left us on September 29, 2025, in Lyman, Wyoming. Born December 23, 1969, in Los Angeles, California to Patrick Garcia and Frances (Barreras) Garcia, Adam was raised in Tucumcari, New Mexico, where he graduated from Tucumcari High School. He went on to study renewable energy by enrolling in the Wind Energy Program at Mesalands Community College.

Adam dedicated his career to public service, working for the Quay County Road Department before taking on the role of Heavy Equipment Operator at Union Pacific Railroad. He was a valued member of his community, actively participating as a parishioner at St. Anne’s Catholic Church and being a proud member of Elk’s Lodge 1172 in Tucumcari.

In his leisure time, Adam found joy in traveling for work, eager to explore new places and experience life to its fullest. He had a natural talent for mechanics and loved working with his hands, always eager to learn something new. Cooking was another passion of his, but nothing brought him more happiness than the precious moments he shared with his beloved family.

Adam is preceded in death by his brother, Patrick Garcia, Jr.; his paternal grandparents, Laudente and Lorencita Garcia; and his maternal grandparents, Juan and Teodora Barreras. 

He is survived by his parents, Patrick and Frances Garcia; his children, Agnes (Krissy) Arnold, Adam Garcia, Jr., Gilbert Garcia, and Jenna Garcia; his grandchildren, Taylor, Justice, Elias, River, Moses, Kaylani, Azarius, Gabriel, Tanner, Trevor, Autumn, and Willow; as well as sisters, Monica (Dan) Aragon and Lisa (Paul, Sr.) Sena; and numerous nephews, nieces, extended family, and friends.

Recitation of The Most Holy Rosary will take place Friday, October 10, 2025 at 6PM at St. Anne's Catholic Church in Tucumcari.

The funeral service will be Saturday, October 11, 2025 at 11AM at St. Anne's Catholic Church, with Deacon Marvin Marquez celebrating the communion service.
