Francisco Flores "Cisco" Galarza

Francisco "Cisco" Flores Galarza, 94, of Debary, Florida, passed away peacefully on January 25, 2026.

Frank was born in Caguas, Puerto Rico, on November 28, 1931, to his loving parents, Juan Flores and Monica Galarza. At the age of 35, he moved to Chicago, Illinois, with his first wife and four children, beginning a new chapter that would shape much of his life. From that moment on, Chicago became his second home. He loved the city deeply and took great pride in calling it his own.

Cisco lived a simple life filled with love, joy, and meaningful moments with family. He enjoyed watching baseball and proudly cheered for the Chicago Cubs whenever he could. Western movies brought him great happiness, especially Bonanza, Rawhide, and The Lone Ranger. He also loved watching wrestling and spending time playing dominoes, always appreciating the company of those around him.

He is survived by his children, Gloria (Bryan) Vanravenswaay, Sarai, Samuel, Edwin, and Moises; his five grandchildren; his five great-grandchildren; his siblings, Ruben, Evan, Luis, Peter, Nicholes, Carmen, and Theresa; along with countless cousins, nieces, and nephews who will miss him dearly.

Dad, we will miss you immensely. You will forever remain in our hearts as you rest with God.

A visitation for Cisco will be held on Friday, January 30, 2026, from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm, with a funeral service beginning at 1:00 pm, led by Pastor Mark Siers. Burial will follow at DeLand Memorial Gardens.
