Luisa Maria Garcia

Just thinking about you today. I think about you all the time. I miss you so much. We shared many laughs all of which I will never forget. You mean so much to me and you always will. Love you always....Russell

Dearest Luisa, I think about you often. I miss your bright smile and your laugh. You touched so many people. Never forgotten

Usually it doesn't take long for me to eventually think about you in one way or another I can't believe that you are actually gone I miss your smile and your laughs and the things that we were talking about sometimes you were an amazing person and I really wish I could see you and talk to you again like we did so long ago I really hope that you're happy and smiling and I will never forget the person you were to me

Baby Girl:
It is only days away from a year since the last time I saw you, held you, felt your warmth near me, heard your voice. I miss you so much! The sun has risen and set for 360 days since you disappeared from this place and the empty space that you left still echoes with your loss. I know that you watch over us and bless us all from where you are in heaven. I know that you dance with Angels now and no one complains about how loud the music is! Sometimes I even feel you around me, but I still long for last chance to hold you. I'll always love you, my dearest daughter. May God hold you close now that I no longer can!

Happy birthday to our Angel! I know that you are always watchig over us and that is my comfort in being away from you. I miss you my dear friend and love you with all my heart.

"Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget You! See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands" Isaiah 49:14-16

You have not been forgotten...not by your mother, not by your father, nor your sister, your cousins, your niece, your aunts or uncles, or your grandparents...We will never forget you.

I began an online search for an old friend and was so saddened that the first thing that came up was a death notice for one of her nieces. Lui, I know you wouldn't remember me...my name is Lee Ann, your sister used to call me Dolly when she was a baby. I can still remember the joy when your family was blessed with your birth. I can only imagine from what I've read, that the joy continued throughout your entire short life. I still can't believe you're gone, so young. I do know though, that you are in a much better place now. It's just hard for those who love you and are left behind - we're selfish and would prefer you were here. Be at peace, sweet Chewey Lui, and watch over your family as I know they've watched over you.



To the family: I don't know what to say. The loss and the grief you feel must be heartbreakingly overwhelming. I think about you all so often and wonder how you all are - I truly do miss you and I am so sorry for your loss. If you would like to get in touch with me, as I hope you will, please email me. I do love you all and miss you so much. Lui was such a blessing, as are all of you - now I'm sure she's an angel. You have my love and deepest sympathy.

It has been 2 months and 13 days, my baby, and people ask me if it's any better. I keep wondering if it ever will be. I still listen for the sound of your car pulling up, the honk of the horn telling me that you've set the alarm and the door slamming so I know you're safe inside - but it never comes. Sometimes I think I hear your voice and I turn around - but you're never there. The music is never too loud anymore and the lights are never left on in empty rooms - now it's too quiet, too dark. I look at your picture and you are so alive - I can feel you near me. I miss you more than I ever thought that I could ever miss anyone and the sudden sharpness of the hurt when I realize that you are gone never eases.



But I thank God every time for those few minutes on cloudless mornings when the sun comes in through the french doors and fills the room with a dazzling golden light. You are there wishing me a good day and warming me with your love. You are and will always be my baby girl and the memory of you will live on in my heart until the day I join you and hold you in my arms once again.



With all my love,

my life and the way i saw things changed on 11/24/05 when i got that phone call.....i never thought i'd be signing a book to honor you like this but you deserve to be recognized, remembered, loved and cherished. growing up you were a staple in my everyday life and as years came and went we started to grow up and playing childhood games changed to spending summer nights in your room with the windows open listening to oldies, making dedications on the radio and writing each other letters. i hope you know how much those times meant to me. through the years time and adult responsibilities made us grow apart physically but my heart was always with you. my only regret in my life is that i let the little things get in the way....but i can't change any of it i can only learn from it. believe me lui i have learned so much from you. i have learned to follow my dreams, to believe in myself, to be strong and to always value every moment i have. to me you're alive and i feel you around me....when i'm scared you are the comforting feeling i get that puts my heart at ease, when i'm angry you are that gentle hand on my back that calms me, when i'm sad you are the warm feeling that soothes my broken heart, and when i'm happy you are the laughter that rings from my soul! you are alive because your memory and spirit keep me alive. i love you with so much of me and i'm so proud you are my cousin. i can't wait for the day we're chilling together laughing sharing our secrets and listening to our oldies. always in my heart!

<3 Li aka Smokey!

Dear Lui,

I start my day with a kiss and prayer for you and end it the very same way. My life will never be the same. There will always be an empty space in my heart and everyone elses in the family. You will be deeply missed at every single birthday party and every family reunion.



I can only hope that you now truly know how much you have always been appreciated, loved, respected and how much you have meant to so many people. You have touched so many lives, much more than you could have every imagined. The significance of you time here on earth although much too short, is being measured by all the love and support your friends and coworker have and are giving us.



I love you with all my heart and soul.

Nothing will ever erase the memory of your smile. I am so proud of your accomplishments and your courage. Your dedication and sense of honor will always be an inspiration to me. You worked so hard and served so well, now you are enjoying what you've prayed for. Your Mami said it best, you are in the care of far more capable hands. We love you so much, but nothing compares to the love you have now. Our family will never be the same without you, but I promise to learn from this loss, and not let distance or lack of time interfere with saying "I love you". I will always love you Lulito. Tell me one thing sweetheart, are there Oreos in heaven?

love you always...your auntie Regi

Lui,

God how i miss you. You are soo special to so many people so now you can never say no one loves you because soo many people do. You have done soo much in such a short amount of time on this earth and soo many people are proud of you, including me. You taught me soo much. I learned how to be strong and keep your head up from you, I know now that the goals I have I can reach because you did. I love you so much you are my everything. I know you are up there looking down on all of us and protecting us. Im not going to say good bye, ill just say see you later and i love you *muah*



Your Lil Vavi

To the Family of Sgt. Garcia,

I have only worked with her at CMF for a short time, but I'm so glad to have known her. She always had a smile on her face. She was so fun to be around and she had a wonderful personality, very bubbly. I will surely miss her. My deepest sympathy and prayers, may God be with you as you mourn your loss.

If I only knew that 3 wks ago was going to be the last time I was going to see you....All the memories I have of you are smiling and laughing. I hope you continue to do so in a better place. My thoughts and prayers go out to all of your friends and family during this difficult time. You will be truly missed.

My own sweet angel is watching over all of us now. For her friends and co-workers, she will be the silent shadow watching your back. For our family she will be the invisible presence at all our reunions. And for all her dear friends she will be the warm breeze that caresses your cheek as the thought of her crosses your mind. She loved us all and had so much more life to live. And she will do that through our love and memories.

My prayers and prayers go out to the family of Sgt Garcia.

I would like to extend my thoughts, prayers and deepest sympathy to the Garcia Family. Sgt. Garcia, what a wonderful person ! I will miss that beautiful smile. I know you are watching over us all.

I am sorry to hear of this tragic loss. I knew Luisa from elementary school when we were young in San Francisco, and we ended up in Fairfield again together and maintained a good friendship. I am sorry that after highschool everyone went there separate ways and did not keep in touch. Luisa was a wonderful person to know, and my heart goes out to her family.

My prayers are for each and every family member. May God give you strgenth and guidence through this tough time. Because the battle is not yours alone he is always there with you.

Please know that you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers especially during this difficult time.I am a true believer that our loved ones watch over us always.

I just heard of the news today. My deepest sympathy goes out to the family. A terrible lost. She and I were good friends in high school, but lost all contact afterwards.

My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. May God give you the strength and blessing to help you through this time.

To all of the family members of Sgt

Garcia, I want to give you my deepest sympthy. I have only worked with Sgt Garcia for a short time and while working with her, she always made the days run smooth. She would always smile and make jokes even when the day was going crazy. It was an honor to work with her and she will truely be missed.

My beloved niece, I loved you deeply and will never stop loving you. I will always carry you within my heart, you will never be far from me or forgotten! I was and continue to be extremely proud of you. You were a woman with guts, grace, gentility, beauty, spirit and hope. You were one of a kind, and thank God for that! You had a lot of dreams. They were cut short, but you accomplished what some people never accomplish in a life time.

Watch over those whom you have left behind my precious nice.

Love,

Your aunt, godmother and friend,

Vivi

I am so sorry for your tragic loss. Luisa was way too young to go. I was in the academy with Luisa and was her roommate there for four months. I wish you all strength through this difficult time. God Bless

GARCIA YOU WERE A GREAT CO-WORKER AND i WILL MISS YOU DEEPLY. MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO ALL YOUR LOVED ONES AT THIS DIFFICULT TIME.

To Ana, Gwen, and all of Luisa's family and friends: I am so sorry for your loss. I am thinking about you.

I want to send my thoughtd and prayers to the whole family. Luisa and I had a real wonderful friendship all through High School. We went our different ways after high school but would still say Hello when we saw each other. She will truly be missed.

I am sorry for your loss. I knew Louisa from High School. Her and I got really close senior year. It's been a while since I have seen her. I guess you don't realise how important people are to you untill it's too late. You are all in my prayers and remember she is in a better place now.

I love you Luisa! Your will always be an Angel watching over us and you will be missed.

As a co-worker of Ana Argueta's, I wish to extend my sympathy and the sympathy of all the staff here at ODAS to Luisa's family. We in Older Disabled Adult Services are holding all of you in our prayers and close to our hearts during this painful time.
