He was born to Jose Garcia and Tomasa (Ornales) Garcia in Denver, Colo. Prior to his retirement in 1995 and his move to Lake Havasu City, Joe was employed by G.E. Atomic Division, Sears Distribution Center and Argosystems in California. He volunteered at Our Lady of the Lake soup kitchen, and morning coffee, pick-up and delivery donated goods. He also helped the Lions with several of their sales. First and foremost he loved his family, camping, travel and parties. He made several trips to Hawaii, Cancun, Mexico, Canada and many trips to Wisconsin for family reunions. Joe is preceded in death by both parents, Jose and Tomasa Garcia; siblings, Alvino, Cy, Pete, Paul, Alfred, Aurora, Adela; and an infant granddaughter, Lydia.

All of your tears, joys, loves and faith carried you through this life. Enjoy the rest of the journey and smile down on all of us. You are loved, you will be missed, but you will never be forgotten. A rosary will be at 11 a.m., Monday, at Lietz-Fraze Funeral Home with a reception to follow at Our Lady of the Lake Family Parish Center. Special thanks to my angels, Mariana Schendel, who was there from day one and to my sister-in-law Rosemary Shanahan.
