My deepest condolence’s to the Leeper family. Garnett or as I liked to call her “grandma Garnett” was the sweetest lady ever. I had been really good friends with her grandson Austin Leeper, which is how I met this wonderful lady. As a kid, Austin and I would be skating all the time and Garnett’s home was close to the local park that we skated at. We would visit her frequently, and she would always have a comfortable place for us to unwind at. I must say her sandwiches were the best! Garnett always had care in what we were doing, and I’m very heart broken to hear of her passing. May she Rest In Peace.

I grew up next to Garnett, then she became my step aunt. She was one of the sweetest people I have ever known. She will be missed greatly by all that knew her. The family is in my prayers.
