RIP - Judge Carey Garrett


Judge Carey Garrett passed away this morning, Judge Garrett served as Knox County Juvenile Court Judge since 1982. Judge Garrett always strived to ensure that the children in the court's jurisdiction were always the center of the courts attention.

There have been many stories shared with me about how Judge Garrett cared and tried to always give a fellow human being a helping hand. Judge Garrett you done good, go rest high on the mountain.

Whoever steps onto the bench for the interim and after the May and August 2006 election will have a mighty hefty shadow to sit under and needs to concentrate on the children. Just as Judge Garrett did.
