My Dear "Cuz", All our memories wouldn't begin to explain the love we all have shared over the years. Your smile, your laugh, your hugs...they will be with me until I join you & we can again party together. In the meantime, I know the guitar music & singing between you & Mark will be performed for all our family "up there". I love you, Buddy. SAVE ME A SEAT!!

Scott and Skip, so sorry for your loss. Tom was a great guy. I know he loved to hunt and fish with family. He will be greatly missed. I can still hear his laughter. Tom lived life to the fullest. Again bless you and your family at this sad time
Brittany left a message on December 29, 2015:
I give my sincere condolences to Mr. Garber's entire family. During this dark time, it is my wish to give you comfort with this scripture at Revelation 21:3,4 which says "God...will wipe all tears from their eyes and there will be no more death, suffering, crying or pain." So in the near future, we will be blessed with conditions like this. As for those who have already died, the Bible mentions that " There is going to be a resurrection." These words have brought millions peace of mind and I hope they do the same for you.
Scott left a message on December 29, 2015:
Brother. My memories are sweet, bike riding, hunting and fishing and playing guitar to JT and the Beatles. In blood you were my brother, in life you werre my friend. I am blessed because God chose you to be my brother. S
