Mary Betty Garcia

Mary Betty Garcia, 81, of Albuquerque passed away October 10th, 2025, surrounded by family. Mary graduated from Albuquerque High School. Collected frogs (not real ones) and love going places with her Husband. They married in Germany, went to Hawaii, took us camping many times and to Niagara Falls. Drove all the way in my dad's green Truck there and New York. My mom Loved her grandchildren very much and spent time with all of them this past 4th of July.

Mary was born in Chilili, NM to Manuel and Petrita Griego. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Joe Jerry Garcia. She leaves her devoted children, Alex Garcia (Stella Sagarnaga) and Gloria (Spencer) Anderson; her loving grandchildren Vanessa (Alex) Chavez, Dorian Anderson, and Lucas Anderson; and her cherished great-grandchildren Areanna Garcia, Adrian Chavez, and Carter Garcia-Chavez. We would like to thank all her caregivers, Eileen, Isabel, Kim, Nannette and Maria as without them we wouldn't have been able to cherish her for as long as we did.
