James “Chris” Christopher Garrett, age 65, of Clarkesville, Georgia passed away on Sunday, May 3, 2026.
Mr. Garrett was born on October, 14, 1960 in Toccoa, Georgia to the late Herman and Martha Garrett Sr. He found his greatest peace outdoors. Whether casting a line at sunrise, hunting in the quiet woods, or simply taking in the stillness of nature. Those moments weren’t just hobbies to him; they were where he felt most at home, connected, and alive.
Survivors include his son, Alex Garrett, of Homer, Georgia; brother, Terrell (Linda) Garrett Jr., of Clayton, Georgia; brother, Brad (Charlotte) Garrett, of Monroe, Georgia; sister, Loretta (Keith) Scott, of Cumming, Georgia; brother, Kenneth (Martha) Garrett, of Mount Airy, Georgia; brother, Eric Garrett, of Maysville, Georgia; sister, Shannon Garrett, of Alto, Georgia along with numerous nieces, nephews, and cousins.
Arrangements have been entrusted to the Whitfield Funeral Homes & Crematory, South Chapel at 1370 Industrial Boulevard, Baldwin, Georgia 30511.
