Dear Lorraine and Brent, I am so saddened at Garrett’s passing. I have thought all day of the three of you. I remember Garrett from when he and Adam first became friends when they were around 5 years old. He always had that sweet, yet just a little mischievous smile. Always fun to be around. As he grew up, I would run into him from time to time, sometimes at his job or sometimes dropping his niece off at daycare as I dropped off one of my grandchildren. He still had that smile, and always had a hug for me. As an adult, he maintained that sweet spirit he had as a child. He was loved and will be missed by so many. This world was a kinder place with Garrett Turk in it.

Loraine and family, I am so very sorry for your loss of Garrett. I remember him as a little boy and Jim asking me to go and get him and take him to the fire station. Jim and other firemen were busy fighting a fire. The last time that I saw Garrett, he was at church with you and I told Garrett about me coming to get him. My aunt once told. me , after losing two of her three children, that this loss was the greatest loss of all. You are going to miss this fine young man and I pray that our God will put His loving arms around you and give you the comfort that only He can give. Lorraine, I am going to visit my brother in New Braunfels on Friday about noon. I have been invited to ride with Jeri and Stephen. I need to go because he and my sister in law are in bad health. I am so sorry to miss the visitation and the service. Please know that my thoughts and prayers will be with you.

Garrett left a mark on everyone he knew. It is the mark of loyalty. For every member of my family. Garrett has always been there. His smile and his joy was contagious. So, anytime you were around Garrett you felt uplifted. Thanks Garrett. Our life is better because you were in it.

I can only add my prayers to the others that lift you up. Garrett was a kind young man with a loving heart. He will be greatly missed.

Lorraine I cannot express how deeply sorry I am. I cannot imagine your pain. I can honestly say that Garrett was one of the sweetest nicest young men I ever knew. There was not 1 time I saw him out that he did not have a smile on his face. He always took the time to talk to me when I would see him. He will be missed by everyone who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I am here for you if you need anything. Brent I am sorry for your loss.. I lost a brother it has been almost 39 years since he left us.. I still miss him to this day. May the Lord be with you and your sweet Mother during this time and give you strength to push through.. I love your family dearly.

First of all I want to send my deepest sympathy to your family. I first met Garrett in Bevil Oaks after my family and I moved to Texas from North Carolina. I can't remember a time when he was not smiling that infections smile! I have so many fond memories of him. My first crush. ? I remember impromptu dance parties at the Peoples' house, fun days at the pool, and all of us as kids sneaking out on summer nights to play capture the flag. We were on the AMS newspaper together and when I had a chance to interview "Athlete of the Week" of course my first choice was Garrett. ☺ Once during cheerleading practice the football team was outside practicing too. I fell off of a pyramid stunt and was mortified that he had seen. Which of course he did! ? He made a point to come over and see if I was okay. This is just ONE example of Garrett's kindness and big heart. He was just always such a positive happy soul. I'm forever grateful to have had the pleasure to share a space (even for a little while) in his life. I know that his amazing spirit will carry on forever. Sending an incredible amount of love and comfort to all of the Turk family and to his extended friends and family. You will forever be in my heart Garrett and I'll love you always. ❤❤❤

I am saddened to learn about Garrett's passing. We grew up together and had many of the same classes through elementary and middle school. He was always the class clown and kept us laughing through the years. He was easy to relate to and always found beauty in the things around him. I send my strength to his mom and family. He will be missed by his classmates.
