Patricia Garrett

On March 20, 1949 in Talladega, Alabama, Patricia Ann Calhoun was born to the union of Mr. Samuel Calhoun, Sr. and Mrs. Vinnie Mae Moore Calhoun. Patricia confessed Christ at an early age and united with Mt. Sinai Missionary Baptist Church, where she remained a faithful member until her passing. For many years, Patricia actively served as a member of the usher board. She received her formal education in the Talladega County School System. She later began her family and worked as a home domestic where she was loved immensely by her children. Patricia affectionately known as "Pip" by her family and friends, was blessed with a journey of more than 76 years. Along this journey, Patricia became the wife of Walter Hue Garrett, and together they shared two children, Katie Nell and John Russell "Cody". Cooking was Patricia's "love" language. She loved sitting on the porch getting a breath of fresh air and inviting family and friends over for meals, fun, and entertainment. Patricia also enjoyed relaxing in front of her television watching the news and keeping up with what was going on in the world. We certainly cannot leave out one of the joys of her life, her son "Cody". She loved her son unconditionally. On Thursday, September 12, 2024, Patricia Ann "Pip" Calhoun Garrett peacefully transitioned from this blessed 75-year earthly journey to her new home for eternal rest with the Lord. She was preceded in death by her husband Walter Hue Garrett, parents, Samuel Calhoun, Sr. and Vinnie Calhoun, daughter, Katie Nell Calhoun, brothers, Terry D. Calhoun, Samuel Calhoun, Jr., Paul Calhoun, Bobby Calhoun, and James Calhoun, and sister, Elouise Calhoun Garrett. Patricia will truly be missed not only by family, but her Rubenville community, and all the lives she has touched in some way along her 75-year journey. Patricia's legacy of love and precious memories will forever be remembered and cherished by her son, John Russell "Cody" Calhoun; grandson, Centauri (Alexis) Calhoun; four great-grandchildren, Akiyah Calhoun, Anna Calhoun, Kingston Calhoun, and Josiah Prince Calhoun; five brothers, Joe (Lois) Calhoun, David Calhoun, Thomas Calhoun, LeAnder (Sabrina) Calhoun, and Calvin Calhoun; three sisters, Betty Ann (Jerome) Calhoun, Doletha Calhoun, and Doris Calhoun; special niece whom she loved dearly, LaKesha (Jermon) Woodgett; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, other relatives, and friends.
