Mark Garmon
1944-2017
Gastonia – Mark Wayne Garmon, 73, passed away peacefully in his sleep on April 12, 2017 at Carolina Continued Care Hospital.
Mark was born in Gaston County on February 26, 1944 to the late Marquette J. and Elizabeth Flora Dye Garmon.
In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his sisters, Shelby Jean Johnson, Francis Lewis and Ernestine Bolynn; brothers, John M. Garmon and Parks Garmon.
Mark was a kind and loving soul who loved people! He could express his love with a look, with a smile or with a squeeze. He could even express love by showing who he felt comfortable in his surroundings because he trusted he'd be cared for. Love isn't only shared through words. Love is much deeper than words. Mark showed us that every time you where around him! He helped teach us about our own strengths and gifts in this way. He also taught us how to be happy because he took joy in simple things – joy in seeing his family and joy in fellowship of his caregivers. Mark will be greatly missed by all who loved him!
Left to cherish his memories include his special nephew, Jerry Garmon and wife Robin; nieces and nephews, Johnny Garmon, Parks Garmon, Jr., Irvin Garmon, Tina Kishpaugh, Danny Bolynn, Ronald Garmon, Susan Thomas and Brenda Gibson; many numerous great nieces and great nephews; special care giver, Angela Anderson and staff of Wooding Place, Oak Grove, NC
The family will receive friends from 1:30 until 2:30 pm, Friday, April 14th at Withers & Whisenant Funeral Home. A Celebration of Life service at 2:30 pm, will follow in the chapel with Reverend Richard Cole officiating.
Burial will follow at Sandy Plains Baptist Church Cemetery
