May GOD continue to Bless the family and friends of Mr. Steven Garrett. Continue to have Faith in our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ. We ask that you come together as a family, take this time to reflect on all of the memories that you shared with Steven. Use these memories as a tool from the LORD, to assist one another in understanding the transition that has just taken place. We ask that you hold onto these memories and you share them with Steven's son Steve Jr. And in time Steve Jr. will share them with his children. Think of this not as good bye to Steven, but as "See you Later" for he is at rest in the arms of the our LORD. We will continue to pray for you and your family.
