In memory of Virginia Garcia aka "Boy"

Virginia made the journey home last October. She was in severe pain the night prior to her death, but was still denied medical care. Virginia Garcia was well-loved and respected. We will cherish the days we were fortunate to spend with her. She is free now, although her absence is painful, we must accept her departure to a better place. She is survived by numerous family and friends who loved her very much. I am asking you to print this in her memory. I also request an investigation into the matters of inadequate medical care here at Valley State Prison.
