The year of one thousand nine hundred
the twenty-ninth that I entered
bathing in a remance
Santiago Garcia drowned

The twenty-ninth of August
oh what a special day
Santiago was happy
but his day has arrived

a star has been lost
that illuminated the continent
when Santiago Garcia died
all the people were crying

In the midst of great sorrow
his dear mother is there
that she has lost forever the treasure of her life

I remember that his brothers
They cried very sadly
because they had lost
one of their most beloved

In the company of several friends who could not save him, Santiago Garcia drowned near the Ucross plaza in the state of Wyoming. He was 26 years old, 4 days old at the time of his tragic end. The verses in his memory are composed by Mr. Tony R. Villasenor, of Clearmont, Wyoming.
