\u201cWith a very heavy heart, I would like to inform everybody that my father, Jeff Garcia, has passed away,\u201d he wrote. \u201cMy father was a unique soul. He was unapologetically himself and I will always admire the love, compassion, and drive that he had. He taught me so much and gave me advice that I live by every single day.<\/p>\n

\u201cI would call him every day. I would tell him about the plans I had in comedy and my life. He believed in me, in a way that nobody else did,\u201d the younger Garcia continued. \u201cThe talent my father possessed was truly one of a kind. From voice acting to stand up comedy, he shined with his quick wit, brash humor, and charm.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has made such an impact on people\u2019s lives internationally, whether you grew up watching Jimmy Neutron, or shared a laugh with him at one of his shows. He was my hero\u2026 I idolized him. He may be gone, but he will NEVER be forgotten. He lives on through our family and friends he loved so dearly, along with the legacy he has created.”<\/p>\n
