PETER GARRETT Obituary
PETER BENJAMIN GARRETT, 30, beloved son of Jim and Martha Garrett, and beloved brother of Joshua Neil Garrett, took his flight to heaven on January 12, 2015. Jesus welcomed Peter with open arms since he had accepted Christ as his Savior, and had decided to follow Him in believers' baptism on December 7, 2014. Peter was met in heaven by his grandparents William and Helen Garrett, Paul and Kathleen Merritt, and a host of other loved ones. He will always be remembered with love and greatly missed by his parents, brother Josh and Jenny Vance, best friend Chad Hale, Lifehouse friends, aunts, uncles: Richard (Barbara) Garrett, Judy (Gary) Hester, Susan (Jim) Berg, and Nancy Brauer. A thousand thanks to the Lifehouse folks and the loving care at Cabell Huntington and St. Mary's hospitals. We will see you again soon, Peter! Funeral services will be conducted by Pastor Keith Wiebe and Pastor Ronnie Stewart on Thursday, January 15, 2015 at 6 p.m. at the Reger Funeral Chapel, Huntington. Private burial will be at Oaklawn Cemetery. Friends may call from 4 to 6 p.m. on Thursday, January 15, 2015 at the Reger Funeral Home, Huntington.

Can't explain the hurt in my heart I feel for his family... Petey used to come visit our home and I would always bug him to eat.. Always said no but the one time he did I was so happy. Lol Because it took him 3 years of nagging to do it. Petey was always big hearted , kind and respectful to me and my kids.. His sense of humor was unbelievable. Basically to everyone he encountered he brought laughter. He will be missed tremendously..
