Jean-Pierre ("J.P.") Garnier made an impression on virtually all who met him.  As a father, grandfather, trial lawyer, traveller, friend, he left lasting memories.  He passed away peacefully on the afternoon of May 7, 2009, at the home of his son and daughter-in-law, after a lengthy illness.  His last months were marked by many expressions of gratitude for the life God had allowed him to enjoy and humble recognition that God's mercies and kindness are an undeserved gift.

This blog is created so those who knew J.P. Garnier might share memories that his family and close friends can enjoy for years to come.  You are invited not only to express sentiments relating to his passing but to relate "war stories" and memories that might help preserve the legacy of his colorful and eventful life and the ways he touched those whose paths he crossed.  Thanks for whatever words you might care to contribute (by clicking on "Comments" below).
