Ethan James Garcia's Obituary
Ethan James Garcia was born on September 19th, 2014 to Sheree Ramos and Javier Garcia. Ethan had three siblings, Katherine Garcia, Joseph Torres (who greeted him at the gates of heaven), and Riley Piercy. Ethan spent his last days while mom was in school at his Auntie and Uncle Matt’s house with his cousin who were just like siblings to him – Isaiah, Matthew, Analeah, Leyona, and Nayvia Pina. He also lived with his Grammie and Papa who loved him beyond words. Ethan brought joy, laughter and love to each and every person he came around. Although he did that with many, Ethan especially brought that to his family who I listed above: It was as if they had a slice of heaven. Ethan can light up a room with his smile.
Ethan was born with things people might call disability, but he never let that slow him down and he was never defined by this. Ethan was born with hydrocephalus and a hole in his heart. He took each day and circumstance with a smile on his face. He was recently given news he was going to receive glasses as if he couldn’t get any cuter and we looked forward to seeing him in them. Ethan enjoyed music, Mickey Mouse club house, peek a boo, and watching others enjoy the simple things in life. Ethan’s death was unexpected and our family had so many goals and dreams for this sunshine, but God needed him to go home sooner than we were ready for. He is missed deeply and forever will be. We can say that we know we will see him again and he will greet us at those gates when God calls us. Until then we will forever love you Ethan James !!
