Beautiful, soft spoken and yes a lady with much distinction that made a tremendous impact on my personality. Mrs. Garrett was the librarian at Waynesboro High School when I met her. I even had the privilege of having that as an actual class (library) She and I spoke often and I looked up to her and respected her advice. A couple of years ago, as I was going through my year book, I began to reminince of those times that I spent with her as my mentor. I pray that Jehovah God will continue to bless you and comfort you during your time of loss.

To Mrs. Annie Jackson and the Garrett/Bennon Family, you are in my thoughts and prayers. Annie I did not know your sister but just found out that she is my sorority sister, so I do feel your loss as an AKA. I know she had to be as wonderful of a person as you are. May you all find peace and comfort in knowing that others care and are praying for you all. May God bless and keep you. Cynthia & Leon Conway
