Juan Manuel Garcia's Obituary
Juan Manuel Garcia, born on July 31, 1977, in San Diego, California, passed away on June 7, 2024. He was a dedicated construction worker who poured his heart into building structures that would stand the test of time. Beyond his work, Juan had a passion for skateboarding, feeling the wind against his face as he carved through the streets. His love for all things rasta—whether it was the vibrant colors, reggae music, or the laid-back lifestyle—was infectious.
Juan is survived by his loving mother, Maria H. Garcia, who supported him through thick and thin. His sister, Elisa, shared countless memories with him, from childhood adventures to late-night talks. Juan’s spirit will live on in the hearts of those who knew him, and his legacy will continue to inspire.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to a local skateboarding charity or a rasta-themed community organization. Let us celebrate Juan’s life by remembering his zest for living and his unwavering commitment to those he loved.
