In loving memory of
Charlie Garcia
March 13, 1976 — September 8, 1995
Charlie Garcia (March 13, 1976–Sept. 8, 1995) was a young Denver man whose life — and promise at 19 years old — is remembered by family and community.
Remembering Charlie
A life held close in memory
Charlie Garcia was born March 13, 1976, and grew up in the Denver area. By nineteen he carried the quiet, everyday hopes of so many young people — plans not widely recorded in public sources but implied by the relationships and community ties noted in contemporary records. Public records identify him as a local youth whose life was rooted in Denver; his warm presence is remembered through the names of those who survived him and the community that still holds his memory.
Charlie’s final, public record is from September 8, 1995, when he died in Denver at age 19. Beyond those official facts, few verified personal details have been published. There is no widely available, family-published obituary located in the accessible newspaper and funeral-home indexes that matches his name and the exact date of death; what remains in public records is a brief, factual account rather than a full family memorial. That scarcity of published detail does not diminish his personhood: the records confirm a young life taken too soon and point to loved ones and friends left to grieve.
When public records are limited, dignity and restraint guide how we remember. Charlie’s life is honored here not by speculation but by acknowledging the human reality behind the dates: a young man who belonged to a family and community, who had a future that was never fully lived, and whose name persists in the memories of those who knew him. For those who seek to remember or to share memories, local resources such as the Denver Police cold-case listing and regional obituary archives may hold further leads for family notices or remembrances not available online.
Charlie’s life deserves to be held with care. This page honors him by recording the verified facts we can confirm and by offering a quiet space for remembrance. If family members or friends wish to add memories, photos, or personal remembrances to this memorial, they can offer a fuller picture of Charlie beyond the public record — a fuller tribute to the person he was and the life he might have lived.
