Timothy Winton

12/25/61 - 4/20/14



Timothy Winton Garrett, left us unexpectedly on the early afternoon of Easter Sunday peacefully at home. He worked as a dredge operator for Luedtke Engineering, Seaway Dredging and the King Company across the Great Lakes. He entertained us constantly with his off-beat humor. He was a fantastic cook and his meals always brought the family together. Tim missed his calling as a chef! His first cooking attempt was at three years old as he was found standing on a chair at the stove where the bacon was cooking and the eggs were in the making! He was cherished by his family and friends, and he will be missed by many.

Tim was preceded in death by his father, Kenneth Garrett. He is survived by his mother, Colleen Garrett; sister, Christina Keene; daughter, Jeannette Garrett with Casey Bly; son, Keith Garrett and his grandsons, Krew and Mattix; nieces, Meredith Schlemer, Madeline Eades, and Caitlyn Keene; stepmother, Virginia Garrett, stepbrothers, Jeff Wessendorf, Greg Wessendorf and stepsister, Darcy Wessendorf; his lifelong friends, Ted Johnson, Kevin Paul and Bobby McLain.

Visitation will be held Tuesday, April 29, 2014 from 2 p.m. until 8 p.m. in Urbanski's Bedford Funeral Chapel 8300 Lewis Avenue, Temperance, MI where funeral services will be held Wednesday April 30, 2014, at 1:00 p.m. Following the service he will be laid to rest in Whiteford Union Cemetery. We wish to thank the Bedford Fire Dept. for their heroic efforts. Online condolences may be shared at

Tim, my life will never be the same. Without you I am lost. You were a brother whom I have always been proud of and I thank you for all the times you called me and told me that you loved me. I am so happy that you are free of pain. I am so thankful that you are my brother.

So sad to hear of Tim's passing. Bob and I will miss his many phone calls to chat and his visits up north too! He was a great friend to Bobby for many years!

Miss you buddy!

My heart breaks for you, Colleen. Tim will be remembered by many who love you both. I can remember tearing it up with him and "Chrissy" as kids; we were too much for him! Lifting your family up in prayer.

Colleen, so sorry to hear about your son. Elsie Delrue McClain called me as I live near Lansing. It has been so many years since we've visited but I want you to know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Hope you are well. Love to you! Shirley Gunner Kaemming
