Garcia

Adela Rojas Garcia passed away after a long battle with cancer on January 25, 2026, with the loving support of her family by her side. She was diagnosed in 2011 yet continued living her life to the fullest.

Adela "Della" was born to Teofila Garcia and John Salas Rojas in Tecate, Baja California, Mexico on November 11,1954.  She was the third born of six children, and the eldest daughter. She is preceded in death by her mother Teofila, her father John, her eldest brother Johnny, and nephews Ray Perez and Joshua Rojas. She is survived by her siblings Ramon (Rosa), Angelina, Lucy (Ray), and Joe; her stepfather Enrique Fernandez; several nieces, nephews, and grandnieces/nephews.  She did not have children or grandchildren of her own, but if you knew Della you know that she was like a mother and caretaker to all her family.

Let us remember her embodiment of strength, her resilience, and her love. She left each of us so many special memories along her life's journey. May her soul rest in eternal peace, and her love remain imprinted in our hearts.
