Keith Garcia, 40, of Prescott Valley, Arizona, passed away Sept. 24,
2017. He was born May 4, 1977, in Fajardo, Puerto Rico, to Priscilla
Jimenez and Modesto Garcia.

In 1985 Keith moved with his family from Ceiba, Puerto Rico to
Prescott, Arizona. He attended Miller Valley Elementary school,
where he learned to speak English and played Little League Baseball.
He then attended Granite Mountain Middle School, where he joined the
wrestling team and also played football which he continued at
Prescott High as well as running track.

Keith struggled most of his life with mental illness and substance
abuse and found a measure of peace at Sequal Care, where he was most
proud of his sobriety.

Keith is survived by his mother and stepfather, Priscilla and Daniel
McGinnis; father Modesto Garcia; brothers Julio Caraballo and Arnal
Garcia; stepbrothers Sean McGinnis, Michael McGinnis and Patrick
McGinnis; and grandmother Marcella Jimenez.

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free, I’m following the path God
laid for me. I took his hand when I heard him call, I turned my back
and left it all. Son, you will be missed by those who knew you.

A memorial service will be held Friday, Oct. 6, 2017, at 2 p.m. at
Sunrise Funeral Home, 8167 E. Highway 69, Prescott Valley, Arizona.
Arrangements entrusted to Sunrise Funeral Home.
