Bio of Greg Garrett

Family: Married Marianne. Five children: Paul (22), Mike (20), Leah (17), Steve (15) and Annie (12). Paul returned last October from the Mesa Arizona mission. He recently married a lovely missionary from his mission. Mike is currently serving in the Little Rock Arkansas mission. Leah is a senior at Tuacahn High School for the Performing Arts (St. George). Steve is a freshman at Provo High School. Annie is in 7th grade.

Church: Except for the 2 years as a missionary, I have been the ward and or stake organist in each ward I have lived in since I was 12. (That's a span of over 30 years!) I reluctantly had to give it up to serve in the bishopric of a freshman ward on BYU campus where I am currently serving. In addition to being organist, I have been Ward Mission Leader, High Priest's Group Leader, and teacher several times.

Education: Graduated from BYU in Marketing. Work: After graduation, I moved to Seattle and worked with Safeway. I fazed them out when I bought my own convenience store and gas. It was there that Annie was born with several disabilities. I let the C-store go and moved back to Provo to get family support. I am currently with Nu Skin. Hobbies: I love the outdoors, canoeing, camping, and fishing.

Comps: It started with Kelly Guyman in the MTC, then Mark Pugmire. It ended with Jim Ryder. There were a total of 14, many of which I remember. But so I don't risk offending someone who I might forget, I'll leave it there. Areas Served: Managua, San Jose, Tegucigalpa (twice), San Pedro Sula, and El Progresso.

Memories: I was able to baptize a family in Tegucigapla the first time I was there. When I went back to the city the second time, I visited them first chance I had. It was a wonderful reunion to see them again. I will always remember the experience as a Zone Leader in Tegucigalpa and having to receive 1/3 of the missionaries from Nicaragua when they pulled the missionaries out.
