May 3—Marcella L. Garcia Marcella Lucero Garcia, 95, passed peacefully in her sleep April 6th, 2025 on a morning that brought a spring dusting of snow. The fifth child to Sara and Clemente Lucero, Marcella was born 1930 on a humble Rio Puerco valley ranch amidst the sloping mesas at Cabezon, NM. Marcella spent her formative years divided between the Harwood School for Girls in Albuquerque and the life lessons derived from the family homestead. As a shy and reticent young woman, Marcella embarked on a broadcast production program in Los Angeles and during the 1950s worked in Albuquerque among several local television and radio outlets, notably the Hebenstreit operated KGGM. Devout and dutiful, Marcella held family and home her greatest legacy. She took pleasure in choral music as a member of her church choir. She was a faithful rose gardener amid the unforgiving arid New Mexico summers enjoying compliments on her handiwork from neighbors. She was known to carry a characteristic lilting hum of a song. These simple things she held quietly to herself as a selfless daughter, wife, and mother. She is survived by sons, Richard (Jody) Garcia, Robert (Carla Chavez) Garcia, and Gary Garcia; daughters, Carol Garcia and Joan (Mark) Wilson; her much loved grandchildren, Phillip Chavez, Christian (Sierra) Garcia, Isabella Garcia y Lauer, Joaquin Garcia, Alejandro Garcia, Enrique Garcia, and Quinlan Wilson; sister-in-law, Rose Lucero; a beloved niece, Patty (Eddie) Cordova, and numerous cousins, nieces, and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Bonifacio Garcia; brothers, Elizardo (Emilia) Gonzales, Arneldo (Stella) Lucero, Benjamin (Pina) Lucero, Albert (Isidora) Lucero, Ostacio Lucero; sisters, Frances (Gabriel) Sena, her infant twin, Maria Catalina, Kathryn (Arnold) Paroline, Rosalie Lucero. ******** services will be held at Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, May 9, 2025, beginning with a Rosary at 10:30 am and Mass at 11:00 am. Committal services will immediately follow at Mount Calvary Cemetery. The family wishes to express their heartfelt appreciation to the kind and compassionate care provided by Marcella’s caretakers and Desert Hospice of Albuquerque.
