Santiago Amador Garcia

On Friday April 8, 2022, Santiago (Chago) Amador Garcia, born 9.27.1980 age 41, was called home by his Lord and Savior. He will be lovingly missed by his fiancée Maria Selena-Stone; three sons Edween Garcia, Santiago Garcia Jr., and Emanuel Garcia; parents Guadalupe Garcia, Mary Ann Garcia, and Maria Soriano; brothers Jaime Garcia and Lupe Garcia; sisters Ana Catalina Garcia and Sabrina Button; and many nieces and nephews.

Santiago was a loving, genuine human being who inspired people to make positive changes in their lives. Truly a man of God, he held the Lord near to his heart and always kept a Bible close in case someone needed it. He had a laughter that was contagious and a smile that lit up the room. He worked hard on his three treasured cars, but what he did best was being a father. He was always there for his family, providing kindness, love, and support, and his happiness will always be cherished. “The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he refreshes my soul. He guides me along the right paths for his name’s sake. Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”

‭‭Psalms‬ ‭23:1-4‬ ‭NIV‬‬
