Jeffery L. Garrison


The world will be a little brighter as Jeff smiles down on us from his new home in Heaven. At age 71, Jeff lost his battle with respiratory illness on Monday, May 10, 2021.
Born to Charles L. Sr. and Joyce E. Garrison on July 6, 1949 in Lansing, Mich. Jeff, the youngest of four sons, was the true definition of a “Free Spirit”. He traveled to Hawaii to visit friends in the late 1970s, fell in love with the islands and really never looked back. Jeff made his home in Honaunau on the big island where he developed lifelong friendships with so many, many people.
Jeff will be so greatly missed by his loving family: brothers, Charles L. Jr. (Sandy) of Charlotte, Thomas R. of Eaton Rapids, James G. (Connie) of Charlotte; nieces and nephews, Shannon David, Todd (Christine) Garrison, Tonya Keith, Christopher (Lynn) Garrison, Rachel (Scott) McLane, Andrea Brown, Cana Garrison; and numerous great-nieces and nephews.
Those desiring to make a memorial contribution in honor of Jeffery may send a check or money order to Hospice of Kona, P.O. Box 4130, Kailua Kona, HI 96745; HospiceofKona.org; or phone (808)324-7700.
