Garret Brown Obituary

MOUNT VERNON - Garret Barr Brown

August 29th, 2003 - July 27, 2025

Garret Barr Brown, 21, of Mount Vernon, Washington, passed away on July 27, 2025. Born on August 29th, 2003, in Mount Vernon, where he lived his life and touched the hearts of everyone who knew him.

He is survived by his parents, Jeff and Joni Brown; his siblings Ian, Cortney, Holden, and Gavin; and his beloved nieces and nephews, Caylee, Vivianna, Diesel, and Cooper; along with his amazing bonuses Shannon, Macey and Marley Perks and Steve Melton.

Garret had a passion for life that was unmatched. He loved dancing, singing, cooking, skateboarding and anything that brought him outdoors. He was the life of every party, with a smile that could light up a room and a heart that embraced everyone he met. Fiercely honest, endlessly kind, and always ready to help, Garret had more friends than could be counted and made each one feel like family.

His absence leaves an unfillable void, but his light, laughter, and love will continue to shine in the hearts of those who were blessed to know him.

I did not know Garret, but I know his mother. This young man was fiercely loved and he had to be amazing. His mother has a heart big enough to fill a universe. Joni I love you and I am so sorry Garret left this world so soon.
It seems the apple didn't fall to far from the tree with Garret. It seems Garret had your heart, your amazing sense of humor, and was a joy to everyone who had the opportunity to know him. Prayers are with you and Garrets siblings and friends.
