Toni's obituary
Antonia “Toni” Ramona Garcia passed away peacefully at home on November 8, 2025, surrounded by the love of her family. Born on February 16, 1948, Toni lived a life marked by devotion, generosity, and deep compassion. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother whose gentle spirit touched everyone fortunate enough to know her.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, who passed on April 5, 2024, as well as her mother. Though her heart endured great loss, Toni remained strong, patient, and kind—always giving more than she ever asked for in return.
Toni is survived by her children: her sons Eddie Garcia and Eric Garcia and wife Jezelle, and her daughter Denise Gardner and husband Dawaylon. She is also lovingly remembered by her grandchildren: Cassandra, AnnaMarie, Jazmine, Eric Jr., Andrew, Eva, Jenna, Isaac, Xavier, Tatyanna, and Antonio; and by her great-grandchildren: Izzabell, Neveah, Jeremiah, and Janelle. Also her Honorary Family Friend who was like a daughter and Caregiver Karina Montoya.
Toni was dedicated, hardworking, and loyal in all aspects of her life. She was known for her selflessness, her understanding heart, and her endless love for her family. She cherished music—especially Elvis and New Mexico music—which brought her joy, comfort, and countless memories.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 2025, at 3:00 p.m., at her daughter’s home, where family and friends will gather to honor her beautiful life and the legacy of love she leaves behind.
Toni will be profoundly missed and forever remembered for the warmth, strength, and kindness she shared with all who knew her.
