Obituary:

Heaven has a new angel. Garrett Gib Voecks, 25, of Farmington went to be with God on Saturday, November 30, 2013. He was born March 26, 1988 in Farmington, NM. Indeed a kind hearted and fun-spirited soul. He loved the mountains and being outside with friends. His "haven" was his garage, as he loved working on his dirt bike and truck. Garret would lend a helping hand to anyone, whether it be helping a friend move or gladly rushing to someone's aid. More recently, he selflessly took on a much bigger task of caring for his beloved grandparents; an far from every task that will never be forgotten. We thank him from the bottom of our hearts and are so very proud of him. Garrett was preceded in death by his grandfather, W.J. (Dub) Cole. He leaves behind his mother, Tamara Cole; Rockstar brother, Derek Voecks; father Dan Voecks; beloved companion, Chaos; grandparents, Claytie Cole; Roland and Katie Voecks along with many other supporters who loved him dearly. He will forever be missed. Cremation will take place and memorial services for Garrett are today, Tuesday, December 3, at 2:00 p.m. at Bethany Christian Church, 711 E. 30th St. with Reverend Ursula Messano officiating. In lieu of flowers the family suggests that donations be made in Garrett's name to the charity of your choice.

87. Cherylene Cole (Claytie Garrett⁴², Walter Lee²³, William Clinton¹³, James A.³, Clint¹) was born in 1947.

General Notes:

Good Morning Jenk,

Yes, I am fascinated that we attended reunions when we were kids. I agree that there were lots of people there and that they had great food. Aunt Lila Murphee's granddaughter Linda Nunn was in attendance at that reunion and she is also active on Facebook. I will attempt to send you an invite to the Garrett page. I was born in 1947 and I am wondering how much older or younger than me you might be. I think that due to our sex differences, we never really met. You might recall my brother Mark Cole (1948) or Doug Cole (1953) who were also at that reunion.

We will be driving to Peoria, Ill. for Christmas to visit our daughter and family. Perhaps I will try to call our relative, if you will give me her name.

I remember William Clinton Garrett. I must have been about 5 years old when a reunion was held in Clovis, NM. He sat in a chair outside and if any of us kids got too close he would swing his cane at us. I was really afraid of him. I also remember Aunt Annie and Aunt Mamie. I don't think I ever knew their last names. Great Aunt Lila was married to Uncle Jake. Their daughter is Jakie Jo and I saw her and her husband in Farwell about 2009. He died a couple of years ago. That generation is going fast.

I took my mother and dad to a "cousins reunion" in Crosbyton, Texas in about 2007 or 08. I don't know if they are still doing that, but it was a one day affair at a community center in that little town.

Aunt Vivian's daughter, Faunette Crymes lives in Mountain View, Arkansas and has also done a considerable amount of research. She isn't on the net, but actually went to court houses in Arkansas to get copies of marriage certificates, etc.

Let's stay in touch.

Hi Cherylene,

My name is Jenk Stephenson and my father was Jim Stephenson. My grandmother was Annie Garrett Stephenson, a brother to Walter Garrett. And yes, I am part of the musical Stephenson bunch, except I unfortunately inherited no talent at all. I remember going to some of the Garrett Reunions as a young boy and of course hearing my dad speak of his cousins. But I am more familiar with Aunt Mamie Garrett Martin, and Aunt Lila Garret Murphree, and Uncle Jim Garrett who lived closer to me--all siblings of Walter Garrett. Of course they were my father's aunts and uncles, but we kids referred to them as aunt and uncle also.

I have been researching my genealogy for more than 20 years with a large portion of it on my dad and mom's side. But wherever possible I have included all of the cousins that I could find. I actually wrote to Mark Anderson because his wife, Angelia, came up with a DNA match with me on Ancestry.com and luckily it was pretty easy to make a connection. I would love to join your Facebook Garrett page, but was not able to locate it today. If you could send me a link to it, I'd be most appreciative.

Isn't it interesting that you and I may have met at one of the Garrett Reunions, but I actually have no recollection of that happening. I only remember there being lots of people, at least that is what it seemed like to me, a young kid, at the time.

I have been living in Santa Clarita, California (near Los Angeles) now for 40 years. Frequently we go back to Texas to visit my family and almost always passing through Farwell, Texas. Had I known that Lila lived there I would have tried to find her. Most recently was this past June when we traveled to the east coast (Virginia and North Carolina) doing more of my family research. I know that great grandpa Garrett (William Clinton Garrett) was born in Woodruff County Arkansas as was my grandfather Stephenson.

Sometimes it is a small world. If I read the website correctly, Mark and Angelia, live in Peoria, Illinois and my grandmother (Annie Garrett Stephenson) has a great-granddaughter who is a professor at Bradley University in Peoria. Interesting that two people living nearby each other have no idea they share a related heritage.

I do hope that we can stay in touch and share family information.

Jenk

Hello Jenk,

My name is Cherylene Cole Evans and my son in law got it touch with you through his family tree research. We are apparently cousins. My mother is Claytie Garrett. Her father was Walter Garrett and was your great uncle.

My mother is one of 6 siblings.

Vivian Fox is now 100 years old, Adygene died this year at age 89, my mother Claytie is 87 and living in Farmington, NM, Lila Watkins, 87, now lives in Farwell, Texas not far from Portalas, NM where they lived in the late 30's and 40's. Madge, who was 2 years younger than Lila, died in 2012, and Clint died in 1969, when he was only 31 or 32of brain cancer. I think that all these siblings had 27 children and all of them have had children. I know all of my first cousins on my mothers side of the family, but not so many others. You might want to join us on the Garrett page on Facebook. Many of us would be interested in learning about our extended family.

Is it the Stephensons that are musical? My mother has talked about the professional musicians in her family, and my memory is that it may be the Stephensons.

I too recall the big family reunions at Conchas Lake in New Mexico. I think we had it there 2 years in a row. I know one year was 1959. My dad took his boat and we water skiied. Clint was my mother's little brother and probably was allowed to operate the boat some, however I know that Clint never had a boat. My dad was Dub Cole.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Cherylene Evans

Thank you for the picture, Jenk. I have a copy of John Newton Jones "ledger". He apparently wrote it when he was older and telling about his life. It is very interesting. I understand that a book has been published based on his life, but I don't recall the title. I have a cousin who knows and I will check on it.

I know Faunette would be happy to share information with you. Her husband is Paul J. Crymes and they have lived in Mountain View for at 30 or maybe 40 years.

Funny you mention the hearing aide that our great grandfather wore. My granddaddy, Walter also wore the same kind of hearing aide. He would just turn it off when he didn't want to listen to the noise. We would laugh at the fact that my Grandmother would look at him to see what he thought about something she had just told him and he always answered, "yes, Mama."

I have added you to the Garrett family page. We don't get on it very often, but have found it to be helpful when we need to keep family informed about health issues. Someone from every family seems to be on facebook, and passes the word along. I also track our children and grandchildren through facebook.

When you get on tell us something about you and your connection to us and I think Jan Lassiter..will be on it quickly respond. I know she is into ancestry.com too.

I taught elementary school in Jefferson County, CO (the Denver area) for 32 years. I retired in 2005. My husband had a glass construction company and retired in January of this year. He liked working, but recently decided that he rather likes being retired. We have a son in Phoenix , a son here in the Denver area, and our our daughter, Angela in Peoria.

We will be driving to San Diego in January to see our grandson graduate from boot camp to become a marine. Perhaps we will be able to get together then. It will be fun to actually meet at some point.

It has been great visiting with you.

Cherylene

Thank you for the update Andrea. Craig and I enjoyed Christmas in Peoria, IL. with our daughter, Angela, her husband,Mark and their daughters. Granddaughter Lydia is 18 and a freshman at Cornell. Granddaughter Grace is 16 and still in high school. If Grace's grades are any indication she is likely headed to a Ivy League School in a few years just like her sister. We will be returning to Denver tomorrow to enjoy the super cold weather and snow. In late January we will be joining our son Gregory and his family for a trip to see our Marine recruit become a Marine. Gregory's youngest is scheduled to graduate from basic in late January. Safe travels to one and all, and may we all have a prosperous 2015.
