Garrett Reed remembered…
Throughout the day today you have called and emailed wanting more details on Garretts accident. Apparently last night Garrett lost control of his car and crossed over into the path of an oncoming vehicle. The other vehicle struck his car in the drivers door. Even though he was wearing his seat belt – he was killed instantly. We understand the 25 year old driver of the other vehicle remains hospitalized – but should recover fully. The accident occurred around midnight Friday night in Marietta. Garrett was a Junior at Harrison High School in Kennesaw.
Visitation will be from 6 to 9 PM at West Cobb funeral home in Marietta. The funeral will be Tuesday at 2PM at First Baptist Church in Powder Springs and the burial immediately following at Kennesaw Memorial Park cemetery.
Here are a few of my favorite images I captured of Garrett over the past 16 years.

I am friends with Garrett’s Dad, Neal. I meet Neal about 17 years ago and we became instant friends when we discovered that our baby boys were due around the same time. I feel as if I watched Garrett grow up – I knew how well he did in little league baseball and in the blink of an eye how he excelled in high school football. His parents were so very proud of everything there first born accomplished. I was shocked and saddened to hear of this tragic loss and the family is in all of our thoughts and prayers. We will always remember Garrett as an athlete, a friend, but most of all as a son to parents who truly adored him.
