    To his daughter and the entire family of Mr Gilbert Anthony Garcia:
    I had the pleasure of meeting Gilbert about 14 years ago and was attracted by his glowing persona. He was a unique creation of God. Yes he had a greeting manner, joke and smile everytime he came into my presence. Though shy he managed to be himself around the Mesa FHC staff and never did we see him negative. I will miss him with all my heart and soul, because that is where I will keep him forever. May Our Heavenly Father bless and comfort you and keep you smiling, because that is where he nneds you to be.

    I had the pleasure of knowing Gilbert for about 10 years ago. He was always cheerful and making me laugh. He was such a good person very respectful. I will miss his smile and his good humor. The Lord be with his family and give them strength and faith to know that he is home now making everyone else up there laugh.
    I will miss you Gilbert may you rest in peace.
