IN LOVING MEMORY OF
Terrance L.
“Terry” Garrett
October 28, 2016
"There are places I'll remember all my life though some have changed. Some forever not for better, some have gone and some remain. All these places have their moments with lovers and friends I still can recall. Some are dead and some are living. In my life, I've loved them all But of all these friends and lovers, there is no one compares with you. And these memories lose their meaning when I think of love as something new. Though I know I'll never lose affection for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more."
Terrance L. "Terry" Garrett, 67, of Millersville, walked into Heaven by the hand of the Lord on Friday, October 28, 2016 at Lancaster General Hospital. He shared 31 wonderful years with his wife Jennifer E. "Jenni" Brant. Terry was born in Lancaster to the late Paul Robert and Mary E. (Victor) Garrett.
At the age of 11 Terry was embraced and welcomed to the family of the late Ray and Victoria (Victor) Grimm. He graduated from Lampeter-Strasburg High School in 1967 and retired from Armstrong World Industries floor plant where he was a CDL transport driver. In retirement, Terry enjoyed working for Henry's Seafood in Wrightsville.
Terry was a very kind, loving and caring people person who touched many lives. He made friends wherever he went! He was an animal lover and truly adored his cats. Terry owned several Harley Davidsons and muscle cars throughout his life, and he enjoyed participating in car shows. He was a life-long, ever-suffering true Philadelphia Eagles fan. Most of all, he loved his best friend and wife, Jenni.
