David Lacey Garrison Jr.

To the Garrison Family,
I have just learned of David's passing. It has been a priviledge and pleasure to have known David since high school. His accomplishments were many, but his friendship was unique. May God's blessings be with him and with the family of which he was so proud.

Lucia, Christian and I will always remember David. He was selfless, generous to a fault, practiced true Southern hospitality, non-addicted to our politically correct world, a sincere up-front Christian, and a gentleman in all that word connotes. Requiescat in pace. Godspeed.

Dear Garrison Family, Accept my profound sympathies and sincere prayers on David's passing. I heartily endorse and expand upon the shared characterizations of him as a wonderful, compassionate, generous, and truly noble man and confrere. I best knew him in the 1970s and 80s but fully comprehend that his genuine greatness of spirit continued to grow bringing cheer and grace to us all.

It has been my pleasure to serve with David on the Southern Region Trust Fund Committee for the past three years. During that time we visited several times about my son's doctoral subject - Pope Julius II. David was a generous, warm-hearted individual who had several passions, one of which was Scouting. It was a joy to see him at the National Jamboree this past summer. I will miss him, and his friendship deeply. My prayers are with the Garrison family.

As Governor of the Texas Society of the Order of the Founders & Patriots of America and the Texas Society of Colonial Wars, I wish to convey, on behalf of our Hereditary Orders, our deepest and most heartfelt sympathy in commemoration of our most esteemed and beloved Associate and Warrior. As no other person, David truly exemplified the clarion call of our Order--Steadfast for God and Country! We salute you, Sir, and commend your Spirit to the Almighty.

To Robin and the Garrison family go my deepest sympathies. David was very kind to me and we spent our visits talking about Papal awards and duck hunting. God bless your family and may you have peace knowing that David is with the Lord.

Respectfully,

David was a true supporter of the Boy Scouts of America,it was a pleasure working with him in the Southern Region. He will be missed Our prayers are with his family.

Sally and I wish to express our deepest sympathy to the entire Garrison family. David was a special person, a true friend and a wonderful human being. He will be sorely missed. Dennis and Sally Bechara. Falls Church, Virginia and Mayaguez, Puerto Rico.

Deepest sympathies to the Garrison family.
