I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Garnica at the Toccoa-Stephens County Literacy Center where he could come to research his various hiking trip accross the United States. He would always return and share with us the beauty of God's creation. He was in love with hiking the many trails and was always enthused in his quiet way. During his illness, I had the privilege of praying for him and standing in faith. God called him from labor to rest and we at the TSCLC will cherish his memory. Condolences to the family.

Dear Faith, Kristen & Family,
We are saddened to hear of your Dad's passing.

There are so many fond memories of going to church with him & meals together when you girls were small.

He was a dear man & we will miss him until we see him again in Heaven.

May the Lord comfort you & provide for your needs.

I am so sorry to hear about Juans passing. I met him just before the holidays last year. He was a very nice honorable person. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. He talked a lot about you all and had a great love for each of you. May he rest in peace.
