Edward R. Garcia

West Point, 1989

Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Warren Hearnes on November 9, 2026:

We all knew Ed was special from the start. He exemplified the very best of the Class of 1989. Few embodied our class motto, "We Strengthen the Line!" more fully than Ed Garcia. He was not only an exceptional Army officer and a dedicated physician, but truly an inspiration to his classmates. His life reflected the values of Duty, Honor, Country - not just in words, but through his service, his commitment to others, and the example he set for all of us. Ed represented the kind of leader and person we all aspired to be.

His passing is a tremendous loss to our class and to everyone fortunate enough to have known him. We mourn his loss, and we also celebrate a life of service, accomplishment, and purpose. Ed made us proud to call him a classmate, a friend, and a brother. Well done! Be Thou at Peace.
