A wonderful night spent with Garrett at my house in Maine some years back. He fell in love with this littie fat man that we bought at an art gallery in Key West. I think it captures well a certain delightful spirit that we all loved!

38 years of being my best friend. There’s not enough words to tell how much your friendship means to me. You were the center of our group of old school friends and always managed to keep bringing us together for great times. Your generosity never taken for granted. You are the smartest guy I know and you made a beautiful family, my heart goes out to them. I’m going to miss you Brother.

Garrett was a very close friend of my son Sam. I never met Garrett in person, and knew him throughmy son.

I will forever be grateful that God put him in Sam's life. He had such a good influence on my son in the early days, when they were finding their way as young men. I wish I could have told Garrett thank you for all you did for my son. My heart breaks for Garrett's family and anyone else who relied on him. Only God decides when he calls his angels home.

Garrett, what we built together was amazing, and it couldn't have been done without you. Thank you and rest in peace, partner.

I love the hell out of you my man!!! You were my bestie since our high school adventures, business plays, and days of figuring out the problems of the world; granted, we left a few on the table, but we took cuts at the ball at every opportunity!!!. I’m going to miss you greatly, G! You were a relentless entrepreneur who I had great respect and admiration for. God bless and sorry to your family for such a massive loss.
