Granny was the best grandmother anyone could ask for. She had a Heart Of Gold she would help anyone in need I Love her dearly and will never forget all the fun times we had together. All the time I cooked for her and I remember driving her around when I was 12 and 13 years old we would ride around Listening to Merle Haggard and all the oldies like Conway Twitty Like the song he sings Goodbye time comes to mind but it’s not Goodbye it’s just Good night I will wake up one day and see her in glory with The Lord Jesus Christ. Love you Granny Junior Garrett
My grandmother, the one and only. To my Granny, my friend, my fave: I appreciate everything you’ve been to me in life. You were always the first one to bring humor to the room. I’m so lucky and proud to be your granddaughter. The love you always showed Asher and Brooks is unforgettable. Your love was truly unconditional. Mooka misses you so much 😊. The solace is knowing you won’t be suffering any longer and that you get to “live it up” in heaven with granddaddy and the rest of your family and friends. It’s hard to imagine what it will be like when I can’t talk to you several times a day anymore. You are forever in my heart. Our memories will live on. I bet you wish you could take one more ride in my car……ha, I won’t forget you yelling for me to slow it down young lady! You liked your music loud with a cup of wine beside you and a smile on your face. I love you! Brandy Thompson
Granny was the best great grandmother a boy could have. She always knew how to make me smile. She told the funniest jokes/stories and I love and loved her so much. I know that she is in Heaven now, and I know she is better off there. Even thought it is hard to know that she is gone, I will always remember her and how amazing she was. ” I love you so much Granny you were the best great grandma ever!!” – Love Asher
Granny will be deeply missed I share many sweet memories with her she was my grandmother by blood but she was my granny in my heart the first time I met her she told me call me granny everyone calls me granny I’ll be your granny to she had a big heart anyone who knew her would tell you that she would give you the shirt off her back if you needed it you will always be in my heart love you granny!!
So true Christian! She was a true giver.
Granny was a strong willed women with a heart of gold. She called it how she saw it and didn’t mince words. She would help you out with no questions asked. She loved her animals and telling stories of the old days. She loved having visitors and would always let family stay with her when they needed to. Whenever we visited she never wanted us to leave. 🙂 That’s just how she was. She will be missed by all those who knew her.
Our heart felt sympathy to your family. We love you Junior Garrett and are praying for you all.
