Fernando Garcia, 32, of Cartersville, Georgia, passed away peacefully on September 20, 2025.

Fernando was born on August 26, 1993 in Kennesaw, Georgia, and lived a life filled with love, laughter, and kindness. He was known for his warm heart, his unwavering devotion to those he loved, and his ability to bring joy to every room he entered. He is preceded in death by his maternal grandparents, his paternal grandfather, aunts, uncle and a niece.

Fernando cherished time with family and friends above all else. Whether through sharing stories, lending a helping hand, or simply being present, he left an unforgettable mark on the lives of many. His legacy will live on through the countless moments of love and generosity he shared. Fernando becoming a Godfather to his niece Jade Garcia came with great joy and love. One of his greatest joys was helping raise his niece Nyellie and taking her to Disney movies while they both enjoyed a cry. As she got older Fernando loved taking her to concerts, their fondest one was Bad Bunny while they danced around all night like youngins. He always enjoyed spending time with his Godparents as well.

He is survived by his parents Ramon and Diana Garcia; his significant other Jenna McWhorter; his siblings, Maria (Victoria) Rueda, Frances Rueda, and Melinda Garcia and their children; and many extended family members and friends who will forever hold him in their hearts.
