Michael Vincent Garcia

Michael Vincent Garcia, age 29, passed away at home on April 6th, 2025. Michael is a person who will never be spoken about in the past tense. He made a lasting impression on everyone lucky enough to have crossed paths with him. Whether it was his unbeatable sense of humor, his eclectic music taste, his sick tattoos, his passion for all things spooky, his impeccable fashion sense, or even just the pleasant smell of whatever fancy cologne he was wearing, every room Michael entered felt the impact of his presence. The abundance of roses in his garden is a physical representation of life breathed through the fruit of his labor. Though his life will continue through the lives of those he loves, the love they have for him transcends earthly bounds. He will always be his niece’s best friend, his nephew's favorite superhero, a son, and a brother. He will always be beloved.

More than anything, Michael cherished time spent with his nieces and nephews—he was the fun uncle, the one who always showed up with a smile, a story, and a heart full of love.

He was a devoted brother to Daniel (Elanee), Stephen (Angeli), Joey (Crystal), Deborah, and Anna, a loving son to Mary Kaye and David Garcia, and an extremely beloved uncle to Zoey, Isla, Elijah, Clive, and Esther. His memory will live on in the laughter he sparked, the art he created, and the lives he touched.

In the words of a family favorite, My Chemical Romance, “Though you’re dead and gone, believe me, Your memory will carry on, We’ll carry on.”
