Weslaco- Felix Garcia, Jr. 88, passed away at his home on Monday, October 14th, 2019. Felix was born in Donna, Texas to Felix Sr. and Guadalupe Galvan Garcia. He was a Donna Redskin, but left school early to join the United States Army. After being honorably discharged, Felix became a plumber and eventually a Master Plumber. He ran his own business for the rest of his life. Felix was very talented and smart. He taught many local plumbers their trade. His intelligence combined with his intense drive and work ethic were his keys to success. To say that Felix did not believe in retirement is an understatement.
