If there was ever a Mr Gallatin or Mr Sumner County John Garrott more than met the requirements. His contributions to; the Museum, Bledsoe Historical Park, Rosemont , Gallatin high school, the Rotary Club, historian etc. A friend for some 75 + years that can not be replaced, but will be fondly remembered.

I am so very sorry for your loss and the communities loss. He was a great man, friend to everyone. He always had a smile and was willing to help out doing anything. He was a great historian and Sumner County will never have another one like him. God Bless the family and know that he is doing his thing in the heavens, helping others. God Bless each of you.

I knew John through Bledsoe's Lick Historical Association. It was an honor and a privilege to serve on the Board with him and to soak up his knowledge of the community's history. What a gentleman and a truly generous soul. His shoes can never be filled.
