We are gathered here today to mourn the passing of Claudio Garcia Calderon, who departed this world on September 26, 2024, at the age of 69. Born on April 25, 1955, in Barrancas, Barranquitas, Puerto Rico, Claudio was the beloved son of Victor and Alda Garcia.

Claudio is survived by his loving wife and three children, brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews who he loved very much and took care of with ever bit of his heart body and mind.

Claudio was known for his hobbies, which included playing dominos, grilling, and laughing at his own jokes. His infectious laughter could brighten any room, unless he was in a losing streak at dominos, in which case his laughter turned maniacal.

Farewell, Claudio Garcia Calderon. May you finally find peace and quiet in the afterlife, where there are no dominos to be played or jokes to be told.
