Thomas Earl (Tom) Garrison, born May 24, 1954, left this world to join his beloved wife on the
other side on September 3, 2025. Tom was born in Lafayette, Indiana, where he completed his
education and graduated from Jefferson High School in 1972. He lived in Indianapolis, IN with
his beautiful wife, Debbie Garrison, for over 40 years after they married on June 20, 1981.

Tom is survived and missed by his daughters Amber (Ryan Baize) Garrison, Alicia (Ryan
Jochim) Garrison, Missy (Bob) Pachowiak; son Thomas (Heather) Garrison; brother Robert
Garrison; grandchildren Kayla Rusk, Austin and Ashley Timmons, Connor and Cody Baize,
Bryton and Roman Garrison; mother-in-law Mary Lou Potts; and great grandchildren. Tom is
preceded in death by his wife Debbie Garrison; parents Joseph and Ruth Jane Garrison; sisters
Penny Leddon and Mary Garrison; and father-in-law Thomas Potts.

Tom worked as a Union Carpenter to provide for his family for many years. Even while working
long hours in rain or shine weather, Tom always prioritized spending time with his children,
helped friends with house projects and repairs, fried the best chicken, made the best noodles,
and enjoyed working the crossword in the newspaper nightly. He loved to reminisce and share
stories with loved ones, and always gave a little extra squeeze at the end of every hug. Most of
all, he just enjoyed sharing the little things with his soulmate, Debbie.
