Nancy Garcia

Our beloved mother, Nancy Clemente Garcia, age 90, passed away on March 24, 2026 surrounded by the love of her family. Born on January 20th 1936, in Batac Ilocos Norte Philippines. Nancy graduated from the University of the Philippines, College of Pharmacy in 1956. She arrived in the United States in 1958 through the Hospital Visitor Exchange Program. In 1961, Nancy married Reynaldo and they settled in Cleveland, Ohio.

Nancy was a beautiful, intelligent, and independent woman with a vibrant spirit that carried into all she loved. She was an avid skier, adventurous traveler and a skilled photographer. Above all, she was selfless - a loving daughter, sister, wife and incredible mother; a deeply devoted grandmother; and a loyal friend whose presence enriched the lives of so many.
