In Loving Memory of Debra Ann Garcia
Sunrise: July 26, 1969 – Sunset: June 3, 2025
Age 55 | Houston, Texas
With profound sadness and heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Debra Ann Garcia,
who departed this life on June 3, 2025, at the age of 55 after a courageous battle with
cancer.
Born in Houston, Texas on July 26, 1969, Debra was a proud graduate of Pasadena High
School and a loving daughter, mother, grandmother, sister, and partner. She was a resilient
soul who faced life’s hardships with strength and grace, especially after losing her father,
Manuel A. Garcia Jr., at a young age—a loss that deeply shaped her life and her family.
Debra, affectionately known as “Debo,” found joy in the simple pleasures—fishing at the
Texas City Dike, beach days in Galveston, bike rides through H-Town, and the thrill of a
game room win. But nothing brought her more happiness than time spent with her children
and grandchildren. Her love for family was endless and unwavering; they were her entire
world.
Debra also had a deep love for her pets, who brought her daily comfort and
companionship. Her loyal dog Star and her sassy cat Kiki were part of her heart and home,
and she cared for them with the same devotion she gave to all those she loved.
She is survived by her loving mother, Guadalupe Garcia; her daughters, Brittany Nicole
Reeves and Dominique Desiree Martinez; and her cherished grandchildren: Genesis
Sargento, Josiah Aguilar, Julian Aguilar, Jay Aguilar, and Jaelyn Alvarado. Debra is also
survived by her life partner, Guadalupe Jimenez, and her siblings: Theresa Campos, Diana
Garcia, Ana Lisa Garcia, and Manuel J. Garcia III.
Debra now joins her beloved father Manuel A. Garcia Jr., her grandmother Catalina Marin,
and her dear loved ones Danny Joe Martinez and niece Jennifer Marie Andrade in eternal
peace.
Debra’s memory will live on in the hearts of all who knew and loved her. She was a light in
this world, filled with warmth, laughter, and fierce love. Her legacy lives on—in her family, in
the many lives she touched, and even in the paw prints left behind by Star and Kiki. She will
be deeply missed and forever remembered.
