Luther was born July 29, 1935 in Tellico Plains, Tennessee, son of Joseph Clyde and Willie Lois (Rogers) Garren. He was a veteran and proudly and honorably served in the United States Air Force. After serving his country, he was employed by the Union Pacific Railroad, retiring after many years of dedicated service. Luther was a faithful member of First Methodist Church of Weatherford.
A devoted husband, father and grandfather, Luther was known to all as a kind and gentle soul. He will be greatly missed. His greatest legacy in life was the joy he found in helping others.

Survivors include his wife of 70 years, Patricia Whited Garren; son, Joe D. Garren and wife, Cindy; grandson, Travis Joe Garren and wife, Belen; great-grandchildren, Chad Mahan Garren, and Quinn Belen Garren; sisters, Kathryn Lucas, and Patsy O’Cayce; along with many extended family members and dear friends.
