Zachary Uriah Garcia Obituary (2024)

Zachary Uriah Garcia, A.K.A "Wheels and Uncle Zachy" died peacefully in his hometown of Selah on January 10th, 2024, at the age of 21. Zachary graduated from Selah High School class of 2020. He then went on to play basketball at the University of Arizona and then Eastern before coming back to his hometown. He then began his career at Costco Call Center. Zachary may have left us too soon, but he lived such a full life. His attitude in life was inspirational. He had a "bring it on" attitude. Zach was never a victim of uncontrollable circumstances, instead he was a fighter. No matter what obstacles he encountered, he pushed right through it with a beautiful smile on his face. Growing up Zachary raced quads, "wheeling" on the track team for Selah high school and playing wheelchair basketball for Seattle Adaptive sports. Zach loved nothing more than spending time with family and friends. He cherished being an uncle, brother, and son and was always ready for a good time. He was a blessing and inspiration to everyone who knew him. Zachary is survived by his parents Sal and Crystal Garcia. His older sister "sis" Samantha and older brother "Bubba" James. Six nephews, Ayden, Brendan, Brently, Greyson, Daxton, and Drayden. Two nieces Nahona and IlaMae. Grandparents Brant and Gloria Golob, Salvador Sr. and Jean Garcia, and Claudia and Wayne Mcintosh. Great Grandpa Frank Fallert. Among many more aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends. Zachary would want us to remember the amazing years we had with him. If you cry for him, make sure you laugh too, thinking about his sarcastic (sometimes inappropriate) jokes to make you laugh instead of cry. His family wants everyone to remember him for his contagious laugh, beautiful eyes, and sweet smile. The most important lesson Zach taught us all was it doesnt matter the obstacles that lie ahead, just get up and put one wheel in front of the other. Zacharys viewing will be held at Shaw & Sons Funeral Home on Saturday, January 20th, 2024, from 11:00 to 2:00pm. Immediately following there will be a Reception at Cascade Gardens. The family hopes to see everyone who was lucky enough to get to know our beloved son, brother, uncle, and friend. Zachary Uriah Garcia, never a victim of uncontrollable circumstances, but forever a fighter.
