He was a devout Christian, RA Leader, and deacon over the years.  He enjoyed working on cars and was a collector of Craftsman Tools.

Surviving, in addition to his wife, are a son, Brad Garrison with wife Lori; two sisters, Mamie Weisner and Louree Laws; two grandchildren, Beklyn Gillespie with husband Jessy, and T.J. Garrison; and two great-grandchildren, Hank Gillespie and Avery Gillespie.  He was predeceased by a brother, B.W. “Buck” Garrison, Jr. and a sister, Inez Garrison.
