GARCIA, Michelle Marie - (August 26, 1992 - April 4, 2020) -
Fallen Angel. On April 4th, 2020, we suffered a tragic loss. One of our angels left us peacefully in her sleep, unexpectedly.
Michelle Marie Garcia was a ball of fearless energy since she came into this world Aug 26, 1992. Athletic, adventurous, strong as a tank but pretty and delicate as the most beautiful butterfly you have ever seen, and so much more to all of us who loved her and knew her.
As tough as she was physically on the exterior, inside she was a sensitive, fragile and delicate human with a heart of gold. She had a soul with a bottomless need to please others, be it in any way shape or form that was needed or required at a moment’s notice and was happy with just your appreciation.
That heart also had a soft spot for animals, and you might come in second place if you weren’t as cute or helpless as one. Not many people can train cats to do a jump course like a show horse, but Michelle could!
Whether it was on the playground as a child or barely older at just 15-years, she started learning how to navigate and promote products from the family businesses at a tradeshow often far away from home. She just didn’t have a fear of trying anything or doing anything in front of strangers or live on camera. She didn’t need to practice or do complex rehearsals; she was a natural and we loved that and everything else about her.
Within no time she was a 4’11” powerhouse pitchman (she would prefer that over pitch person or pitch woman!) selling anything from personal training packages to Bondic on camera or hundred thousand-dollar lasers to executives, nothing phased her at all. They didn’t stand a chance with her infectious smile and warm face inviting you over.
That bold quality, to try anything impromptu, obviously created hilarious stories and scenarios that kept all of us in stitches or rolling on the floor in tears, Michelle could laugh at herself as much as we could with her. Promise us that none of you will forget her ability to light up a room when she entered, to be the catalyst of fun or the first to crack you up when you needed it by having a blonde moment at her expense, all the while laughing at herself just as hard as she made you laugh.
We thank so many of you for reaching out to us and we are sorry you can’t help the rest of our family and friends begin to get closure through a traditional ceremony. We can tell you that she would find it cool and amazing to know that none of you have forgotten her when you join us to celebrate her life in the near future after this pandemic has subsided.
We won’t let her down and we will be sure to serve “Free Schevocadoo’s” at that celebration of life!
Since you can join us this Thursday in person, please take a moment of your day and write down something you loved and liked about Michelle and share it with us here, at https://michellemariegarcia.com/. Make it your virtual hug from all who loved her so much. The link will allow you to do that by Friday April 10th.
We miss you will all our hearts and will continue to celebrate you the rest of our lives Michelle Love Belkys, Rob & Katya
