The Garrett Family will be in my prayers. Mr. Garrett was an inspiration to all who knew him. He always called me "a professional lady". Not because of any degrees or great at any special trade. But he always told me, people recieve you for how you present yourself. I'll miss him in the Democratic Meetings.

Mr. Garrett was a friend of the Demery family. He often assisted us through our career paths. We were fortunate enought to have the opportunity to enjoy the stories of his accounting business and how he managed the challenges of life. He will be sorely missed, but never forgotten. His legacy continues.

Sorry to hear of your loss. I enjoyed the stories Mr. Garrett use to tell me about my grandmother and my dad. He said every year they would come in with this big greasy brown paper bag with every thing they had purchased to be used for tax purpose. He help my father mom to get her first social security check. Grandmom died 1961 at the age of 86.Thanks for all you have done for this family. Garrett family, I promise you things will get better with time. God promised he will return to receive...
