Emma's obituary
Emma Victoria
November 26, 2008 – June 20, 2025
With broken hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved daughter, sister, and light of our lives, Emma Victoria Garcia, who left us far too soon on June 20, 2025, at the age of 16.
Emma was truly an angel on this earth. Her gentle spirit and loving heart touched everyone who knew her. She brought joy to her family and friends with her bright smile and kind soul. Emma loved trips to Disneyland, where her eyes lit up with wonder, and she never missed a chance to cheer on the Warriors, especially during games with her dad. She found peace in the outdoors and happiness just being close to her family.
Emma was a devoted big sister to Andre and Evan, who treated her just like little brothers do—sometimes teasing, sometimes bothering, but always loving her deeply. Their bond was full of laughter, love, and the kind of everyday chaos that made their home warm and full of life.
She is survived by her loving mother, Jenovie Valdez; her devoted father, Andre Carrillo; and her cherished brothers, Andre and Evan Carrillo. Her memory will live on in all who knew her, in every laugh she gave us, and every moment she made brighter.
Emma’s presence in our lives was a gift we will always treasure. She will be forever missed, and forever loved.
