Samantha Monique Garcia

Samantha Monique Garcia, 34, of Minnesota and formerly of Eloy, died on Oct. 27, 2020.

Ms. Garcia was born on April 6, 1986. She graduated from Santa Cruz Valley Union High School in 2004. Her character, hard work and outgoing personality allowed her to excel in the banking industry, and she was a branch manager for BCU in Minnesota, where she lived the past four years.

Her family said she was simple, wise, loving and creative. She loved her family and friends and took pride in being an aunt. She enjoyed reading books and poetry, road trips, bonfires, music, get-togethers and her dog, Tag. Her big, beautiful smile was so contagious she could light up any room.

She is survived by her parents, Edward Brady and Janie Escalante; her companion, Jason Hughes; and four siblings, Santana Garcia of Arizona City, Natalie G. Valdez of Casa Grande, Anthony Garcia of Casa Grande and Edward Brady of Eloy.
