January 15, 1944 - March 19, 2024

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved mother, Iva Garrett, who passed away on March 19, 2024 at the age of 80.

Born on January 15, 1944 in Guy, Arkansas, she grew up in Little Rock and later moved to Greenbrier, where she lived most of her life, before moving to Conway at the end of her life. She was a dedicated and loving wife to her late husband, Eddie Garrett; a devoted mother to her children, Lango Garrett and Kay Kay Garner and a member of Greenbrier Church of Christ.

Iva Lene Garrett lived a fulfilling life and was a woman of many talents and passions. She had a green thumb and loved tending to her garden, which was always in full bloom. She enjoyed solving crossword puzzles in her free time, loved dogs and enjoyed traveling, especially with her sister, Sue Johnson, granddaughters, Krista and Whitney and great friend, Cindy Wood.

Iva Lene Garrett was a kind and generous soul, always putting others' needs before her own. Her love and compassion extended to all those who knew her and she will be remembered for her infectious smile and warm personality.

Iva is preceded in death by her parents, Ivory Bettis and Julia Lane Bettis of Guy; her husband, Eddie Garrett of Greenbrier and her great-grandson, Max Elsinger of Conway. She is survived by her sister, Sue Johnson of Greenbrier; brother, Eddie Bettis of Greenbrier; her son, Lango Garrett of Greenbrier; her daughter, Kay Kay Garner (husband, Mike) of Conway; 2 grandchildren, Krista Mitchell of Fayetteville and Whitney Elsinger of Conway and 4 great-grandchildren, who will miss her dearly.

Rest in peace, dear mother. You will forever be in our hearts and memories.
