It is with deep sorrow that we announce the passing of our beloved father, Randall Hugh Garrett who passed away Tuesday, November 25, 2025

Born December 24, 1956 in Rutherford County, NC, Randall lived a carefree life of kindness, integrity, and devotion. He was a retired electrician, known for his generosity and sense of humor.

Randall is survived by Pat Padgett (companion and her son Jack), and daughters, Monica Howell (Jammie Howell) and Kimberly Blake (Michael Blake); grandchildren, Tiffany Barker and Justin Barker.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Ray Gerald and Alice Long Garrett.

A celebration of his life will be held at 5:30pm Sunday, December 7 at 161 Park Lane Dr., Rutherfordton, NC 28139 (Gregory's original Restaurant), where family and friends are welcome to gather, share memories and honor the remarkable man he was.

In lieu of flowers, the family would like donations to be made to Crowe's Mortuary, 118 College Ave., Rutherfordton to help cover cremation expenses.

Though he is no longer with us in person, his spirit will forever remain in our hearts.
