Peter Garcia Obituary

PETER C. GARCIA JR. THANK YOU I would like to thank the Holmes, Mascarenas and Carrillo family for providing the F.O.P. and all the food. I would also like to thank: Jose Villegas for all his support, Larry Vigil and group for the music at his rosary and funeral service, Andy Carrillo for the rosary, Gilbert Holmes for the reading, all the Santa Fe County employees and especially Roman Abeyta for his kindness. My Peter, you were happiest when we spent our time together, surrounded by our children and grandchildren. Not only did I lose my husband, but I lost my best friend and constant companion. My Peter, I thank God that he brought you into my life 17 years ago to show you what it was like to have a true family who loved and cared for you. You will forever be in our hearts. With all our sincere love, Shellie "Rascal", Dayna, Melody, Gary, all your grandchildren and your mother-in-law Esco Holmes
