Jose "Beebe" Luis Garcia

Jose Luis Garcia, lovingly known as Beebe, passed away peacefully at home on September 30, 2025, surrounded by his lord and savior, Jesus Christ. He is survived by his four children: BB Joe Garcia (Myra), Gilbert Garcia (Valeria), Jessica Garcia (Efrem), and Katrina Garcia (Ignacio). 

He was born on November 11, 1962, in Texas to Juan and Hortencia Garcia. Beebe was one of nine children—three brothers and five sisters—and from early on, his family was at the center of his life. He later became a proud father of four: sons, BB Joe and Gilbert, and daughters, Katrina and Jessica. His love only grew deeper when he became a grandfather to seven grandchildren, who quickly became the light of his life.

For most of his adult life, Beebe worked as a forklift driver for Simplot, where he was known for his steady work ethic and easygoing nature. Outside of work, his true joy came from the simple things—fishing, watching football (always cheering on his beloved Minnesota Vikings), working on lowriders, and spending time with family. A cold beer, good food, and laughter with the people he loved most made life complete for him. We will always remember the loteria nights spent with him at Grandma’s house. 

Beebe had a big heart and an even bigger imagination. He would leave the biggest impression on anyone that came into his life. He could talk for hours about Bigfoot, aliens, and the mysteries of the universe, often with a twinkle in his eye and a smile that could make anyone laugh. He loved classic movies like Spaceballs and Blazing Saddles, and never missed a good Star Trek, Star Wars, or Jersey Shore marathon. 

What truly made Beebe special was his deep love for his children and grandchildren. He always did his best for his family, but it was as “Grandpa” that he truly found his place in life. His grandchildren brought out the very best in him, and his love for them was endless. They will forever miss the fishing trips, pojo nights, and NFL Sundays. 

Beebe will be remembered for his humor, his stories, his generosity, and the way he made everyone feel welcomed. He leaves behind a lifetime of laughter, love, and memories that will continue to live on through his family. We love you, Dad.
