Juan's greatest treasure was his family. He was an honorable man who always put his family first. His unwavering love towards his family was immeasurable. He was always willing to help and lend a hand without expecting anything in return. He was happy and easy going. After a hard day's work whether he was tired or not, he would always make time for his grandchildren. Juan was a simple man who you could carry a wholehearted conversation with. He liked laughing and joking about life. When he wasn't busy working on the yard or washing his truck, he enjoyed relaxing with his wife, listening to his favorite music, and enjoying a "cold one" while sitting on the back porch.

The family of Juan Garcia wishes to extend their sincere thanks to the medical staff at Covenant Medical Center in Lubbock, Texas. The staff at U.S. Renal Care, Steed-Todd Funeral Home, Janetta Garcia, Toni Bonney Chavez and all those who have prayed, called, visited and donated food and flowers.
