Supporting Brandon Garcia's Parents in Their Time of Loss

Donation protected
We are devastated to share the heartbreaking news of the sudden and tragic loss of Brandon Garcia. Brandon, a beloved son, was raised in Incline Village and Tahoe City, and graduated from Incline High School. After high school, he served his country with honor for three years in the Air Force before returning home. Known for his talent in woodwork, he crafted beautiful pieces that reflected his creativity and skill. Brandon also distinguished himself as an equipment operator grooming the slopes at Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows for many years, where his passion for skiing and snowboarding and dedication to his craft shone brightly. For several winters, he fearlessly took on the task of snow removal at the Donner Summit train tracks – a notable task highlighting his bravery. His deep affection for his pets exemplified his compassionate nature. A true Tahoe kid at heart, he found great joy in the slopes, surrounded by the beauty of nature, embodying the spirit of adventure and exploration that defined his love for skiing, snowboarding, and the great outdoors. His unexpected departure has left his parents heartbroken, and they now face the daunting task of arranging his final expenses.

In light of this immense loss, we unite to aid Brandon's parents through this incredibly difficult time. No parent should have to bear the burden of unexpected funeral and burial expenses alone, particularly amidst such profound grief. Your generosity will ease their financial burden as they navigate this period of mourning. Together, let us honor Brandon's memory with the dignity and respect he deserves and show his parents that they are not alone in their grief. Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and generosity.
