David Virgil Garrett, 76, of Bryant, passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving family on Sunday morning, September 27, 2020. He was born on March 20, 1944 in Conway to Virgil Haskell and Christine Sturgeon Garrett.
David was a loving and devoted father, grandfather, and friend to many. He enjoyed playing all kinds of card and board games, especially for family get-togethers. He cherished his time with his family and was an all-around friendly man and conversationalist. Hunting and fishing were some of his favorite outdoor activities and you could say in whatever he did, he never met a stranger. He will be missed, but his memory will be cherished and his legacy will continue on through those who loved and cared for him.
He is preceded in death by his parents, first wife, Mary Katherine Sue Garner Garrett, and his stepfather, James Black.

May all your family be comforted at this time of loss. My memories are of childhood days when he would visit Little Rock with brother and sisters at Eva and Virgils home and of Katherine.

I have loved this family my entire life!! Lots of great memories!! David was such a sweet man!! One memory I have that I always thought I was special because when We would go out to the gas station on hwy 35... he would always sneak me A piece of 1¢ bubble gum. As an adult I realize he probably gave every kid bubble gum, but back then it was just from him to me!! â¤ï¸ My heart & my prayers are with all of you!
