Obituary of Daniel Garcia

Daniel “Danny” Garcia passed away on Tuesday April 9th, 2024. Danny, a loving husband and father of 7 passed away at the age of 38.
Danny was born on July 13,1985 to Oscar and Maria Elena Garcia. Danny was blessed to have had the love and care of his godmother and Mom Isabel Paniagua whom he loved with all his heart. In 2017, he married the love of his life Maria Del Jesus Olivas. Together, they raised 4 children Jesus, Aiden, Khloe, and Gracie.

Danny began a career in Corrections that lasted approximately 10 years, but after Covid 19, he found his calling in helping people and began his career as a Funeral Director.  On his birthday in 2023, Danny helped save 4 children that had fallen victims to violence and abandonment. Those children were given a second chance at a better life because of him and his wife Maria. The smallest of the four called him Dad and loved him as such.

Danny had a passion for traveling, cooking, hiking, and most of all making people laugh. He fully enjoyed having people over and cooking for them. He was always joking and making witty comments. One of his biggest wishes was to one day become a Godfather, and he became that in March to his first and only Goddaughter, Cataleya.

Danny is preceded in death by his Grandparents Pablo and Elena Nerey, Oscar Daniel Garcia and Rosario Ronquillo,  and his father-in-law Mr. Juan Olivas. He leaves behind a legacy of love and strength, his wife Mari and their 6 children, and his daughter Isabella Garcia. He is also survived by his father Oscar Garcia and his wife Perla, his biological mother Maria Elena, his Mom Isabel Paniagua and her husband Bruno, his brother Oscar Garcia and his wife Rochelle, his sister Daniela Garcia and her daughter Catori, his sister Grizel Garcia and her husband Jarrod, his brother Christian Garcia and his wife Eliza, his brother Alan and his partner Karina, his Brother Joel and his sister Andrea.

Danny is survived by his nieces and nephews as well as so many family members that loved him.
