Mr. Garrett was born on October, 14, 1960 in Toccoa, Georgia to the late Hermon and Martha Garrett Sr. He found his greatest peace outdoors. Whether casting a line at sunrise, hunting in the quiet woods, or simply taking in the stillness of nature. Those moments weren’t just hobbies to him; they were where he felt most at home, connected, and alive.

Survivors include his son, Alex Garrett, of Homer, Georgia; brother, Terrell (Linda) Garrett Jr., of Clayton, Georgia; brother, Brad (Charlotte) Garrett, of Monroe, Georgia; sister, Loretta (Keith) Scott, of Cumming, Georgia; brother, Kenneth (Martha) Garrett, of Mount Airy, Georgia; brother, Eric Garrett, of Maysville, Georgia; sister, Shannon Garrett, of Alto, Georgia along with numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.

Arrangements have been entrusted to the Whitfield Funeral Homes & Crematory, South Chapel at 1370 Industrial Boulevard, Baldwin, Georgia 30511.
