Jasmine Jennifer Garcia

“Forever in our hearts.”

It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Jasmine Jennifer Garcia, age 28, of Monte Vista, Colorado. Jasmine was the beloved daughter of Gilberto Arturo Garcia and Josefina Guzman. She was born on March 6, 1997, in Alamosa, Colorado, and left this world on October 31, 2025.

Jasmine had a deep love for cleaning, listening to music, writing in her journal, and reading her Bible. She cherished spending time with her nieces and nephews, her siblings, and most of all, her mother. Jasmine was a fierce and determined individual who pursued her goals with unwavering strength. Her love was wholehearted, and her loyalty unmatched.

Jasmine had a heart of gold that shone as brightly as her beautiful smile—one that could brighten anyone’s day. Her honesty, though sometimes blunt, was always genuine. She had a way of putting others before herself and always kept it real. Her sense of humor brought joy to those around her, and her presence will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.
