Daniel played the tuba in both the DHS band and the UK band. He loved to travel, eat and cook, sew and made wonderful leatherwork.

In addition to his father, he is survived by his two favorite sons, Jackson Garnett of Boynton Beach, Florida and Alex Garnett of San Diego, California and his perfect sister, Joanna Garnett (Robert) Wilkirson of Lexington.
