Charlotte Kay Garcia

Charlotte Kay Garcia (Brown) passed away peacefully on November 11, 2026, in Midland, Texas, surrounded by her children, family, and dear friends. She spent her final chapter living with her daughter, Krystal, where she was cared for and surrounded by love.

Charlotte was born on November 19, 1965, in Potter County, Texas. She was welcomed through adoption into the loving home of John D. and Margaret J. Brown, who cherished her unconditionally. Alongside her sister, Shirley Barta, Charlotte was raised in a home rooted in Christian faith, love, and devotion.

Charlotte was truly one of a kind and always the life of the party. When she walked into a room, you could count on a joke, a funny comment, or something that would make everyone laugh.

Charlotte was the mother of three children: Marcus Shawn Bradley (fiancée, Crystal Putty), Krystal Kay Bradley (fiancé, Robert Sanchez), and Brittany Shyana Davila (fiancé, Rusty Davila). Marcus, her firstborn and only son, shared a special bond with his mother, while her daughters each held their own special place in her heart. As the years passed, Charlotte and her children grew closer, sharing laughter, love, and treasured memories.

Charlotte shared a love like no other with her late husband, Ernest Garcia. Their relationship was one that few could understand, but it only needed to make sense to them. They could argue and drive each other crazy, yet their love never faded. Ernest loved her until his last breath, and Charlotte missed him until hers.

Charlotte dearly loved her seven grandchildren: Dakota Bradley, Layla Arcides, Marcus Shawn Bradley Jr., Cayden Arcides, Raiden Davila, Alyssa Lujan, and Liam Lujan. She especially enjoyed spending time with Layla and her friends because it made her feel like a teenager again.

A devoted Dallas Cowboys fan, Charlotte proudly wore her jersey and hollered at the television every game day, win or lose! She also enjoyed her daily lottery tickets and spending time with her dear friends, Peggy Gale and Toni Russell.

In 2024, Charlotte began her journey of sobriety, finding renewed strength in her Christian faith and growing closer to her children. Her later years brought opportunities for healing, laughter, and love.

For more than 25 years, Charlotte and her three children shared a silly little saying in a funny voice: “Sheee Doinnnn,” their special way of asking, “What are you doing?” Even during her final days, Charlotte responded with that familiar saying and a little laugh when her daughter spoke to her. It was a precious moment her children will forever cherish.

Charlotte was preceded in death by her loving parents, John D. Brown (April 17, 2020) and Margaret J. Brown (August 19, 2026), and her beloved husband, Ernest Garcia (March 25, 2015).
