Maxine,
Our deepest sympathies and condolences to you and your family. I have a lot of great memories of Garnett when we lived in Ross Lake. This time of year brings back a lot of memories of us sitting on their living room floor listening to the world series, no television back then. He was a fantastic person with a great sense of humour.
So very sorry, hugs to you all.
Gene and Sharry
