She went home to be with the Lord and those who preceded her in death February 28, 2020.
Velma was preceded in death by: her parents Henry Edgar and Nettie Christian Barger; her husband, D.W. Garrett; her brothers Rayford Barger, Bill (Cleo) Barger, Billy Joe Barger, Jerry Barger; and her son-in-law Dennis Gatlin.
She is survived by: her children Paula Chick, Brenda Sivley, Marla Gatlin and Doug (Suzi) Garrett; two sisters, Wynema (Bruce) Hamilton and Glenda Tucker; grandchildren Jeffrey Garrett, Daniel Gatlin, Corey Garrett and Amanda Gatlin; one brother, Leslie (Patsy) Barger; two sisters-in-law Marie Barger and Louise Barger; and a beautiful extended family, nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives and a wonderful group of loving friends.
Velma spent her life raising her children, caring for her home and working beside her husband in the family business. She was a friend and role model to so many, and she was able to touch so many lives in her years here on earth.
We will celebrate Velma Irene (Barger) Garrett and her beautiful life during a graveside service on Thursday, March 5 at 12:30PM in Laurel Oaks Memorial Park. Chris and Amanda have opened their home for lunch and fellowship after the graveside celebration. Please join us.
The family wishes to express thanks to Natalie and her staff at Notice Care Homes and the staff at Always Accurate Hospice for all their help caring for Mrs. Garrett. Your kindness touched our hearts.
