9-18-15,  DAY 157
John was a friend and a mentor, my first Battlion Chief and at the time a guy who could drink beer like I did, which was at the time was A LOT!  I didn't know he had been sick.  Another brother I had lost touch with over the years.  RIP my Amigo!
We sadly share the passing of retired Lt. John S. Garrett on Saturday September 12, 2015; he fought a courageous battle with a number of illnesses and was under the care of Hospice.
Lt. Garrett started his career in the fire service as a Firefighter with the Taft Fire Control District in 1974. He retired in 2000 as an Orange County Fire Rescue Department Lieutenant assigned at Fire Station 36. He was riding BC the day when Mark and Todd lost their lives in the line of duty, back in February 24, 1989.
He was a hardworking firefighter and a good friend to many. He will be sorely missed.
Memorial Service
