Thomas (Tom) Joseph Garcia

Thomas J. Garcia, Sr. Age 64 of Roseville Formerly of East St. Paul Passed away unexpectedly at home on July 12, 2015. Tom was a devoted family man whose laughter brought joy to all who knew him. He was an enthusiast of all MN sports (even when they were losing) and was the kind of man to give the shirt off his back for anyone in need. He is preceded in death by his parents, Narcissus and Mary Lou Garcia. Survived by former wife and lifelong companion, Cheryl; children, Thomas Jr. (Mara), Jessica (Chris) Martin and Nicole (Bernard) Manthey; grandchildren, Kaleigh, Olivia, Evan, and one on the way; siblings, Greg (Connie), Felicia Paananen, Tim, and Lydia (Mark) Bartel; and many nieces, nephews, relatives, and friends. He was loved so much and will be greatly missed. A Celebration of Tom’s life will be held from 4-8PM on Thursday, July 16, 2015 at Mueller Memorial, 835 Johnson Pkwy., St. Paul. Memorials can be made to the family or at www.gofundme.com/z9wu83b.
