John E. Garrett Jr.
John E. Garrett Jr, 82, of Fountain Inn, husband of Judith Garrett, went to be with his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Thursday, May 17, 2018 while at home surrounded by his family.
Mr. Garrett was a son of the late John E. Garrett Sr. and the late Jewel Driggers Garrett. He retired from the SC Dept. of Revenue.
In addition to his wife, Mr. Garrett is survived by two daughters, Melisa Ramey and her husband, Wayne, of Townville, and Sarah Dale and her husband, Charlie, of Madison, NC; two grandchildren, Hunter Garrett Dale and Hannah Elaine Dale; and one brother, Joseph T. Garrett of Easley.
He was preceded in death by one brother, Eugene T. Garrett; and one sister, Sarah Elizabeth Chambers.
A Funeral Service will be held on Monday, May 21, 2018 at 12:00 PM at Heritage Funeral Home.
The family will receive friends starting at 11:00 AM prior to the service.
Burial will be in the Simpsonville City Cemetery.
I know this has been very tough on Melisa and the family. Losing a loved one is the most difficult event we experience. I pray that his memory will always be with you.
Dear Garrett Family: Please accept my deepest sympathy for the family and friends of John. We will never get used to losing our loved ones in death because as Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, we were created with everlasting life in view. But may you find comfort in knowing that Almighty God has promised that soon he will swallow up death forever along with the pain that it brings. (Isaiah 25:8) God has also promised that he will return John to you as it says at John 5:28,29 and also Psalms 37:29. You can also learn more about what happens when a loved one dies at JW.org.
Sincerely,
Susan
