Bro. Nicanor Garcia '71A (requiescat in pace)

Brother Nicanor "Nick a.k.a. Junior" Garcia was initiated at APO Theta UPLB as part of Batch 1971A (Angels Unchained) and later affiliated at Sigma Chapter, Adamson University in Manila. When he got married and settled in Negros Occidental, Bro. Nick became involved with APO activities of the brothers and sisters in the Calatrava and San Carlos City areas.

Bro. Nick passed away on 22 August 2013.

US-based batch mate Bro. Henry Astorga recalls:

"Bro. Nick was a batch mate. He, along with Tony Gopez, Cesar Gumboc, and I concocted the batch name; we sold the idea to the rest, and thus the name was born - Angels Unchained. Yes, we do indeed leave imprints in the lives of others making them remember us in a unique way separate from the rest. Brother Nick had done his own imprinting - that is, uniquely Nick."

Bro. Nick is survived by his wife, Leah H. Garcia, three sons, Carlo Antonio H. Garcia, John Vincent H. Garcia, Neil Gabriel H. Garcia, mother Maria Garcia, sister Flordeliz Garcia, four brothers Lt. General Rodolfo Garcia, Engineer George Garcia, blood & fraternity brother Leo Garcia, Dr. Julius Caesar Garcia, sisters-in-law, nephews, nieces and other relatives.

His remains were laid to rest at the Calatrava Catholic Cemetery on 1 September 2013. Let us pray for the eternal repose of our dear departed brother's soul. Those who wish to may post their remembrances of Bro. Nick in the combox below.
