Garrett Allen Cogger

November 3, 1986 — February 27, 2015

Garrett Allen Cogger, age 28 of Hastings passed away February 27, 2015 and danced his way into the arms of Jesus.

Garrett was born on November 3, 1986, the son of Roy E. Cogger Sr. and Debra Lorraine (Fliearman) Cogger. He attended Barry Intermediate School.

Garrett loved his family and was loved and cared for by them. He could not see, speak, or hear, but everyday he communicated his love for others especially his nieces and nephews. He always had a big smile for everyone.

When Garrett was born he was not expected to live past two years old, but because of Gods grace and the hands of many doctors, nurses, and other professionals we were blessed to have him until he was 28 years old. Garrett, born with special needs, now is in heaven with Jesus, and he is able to speak, walk, sing and dance with the angels.

Garrett was preceded in death by his grandparents, Charles and Catherine Cogger of Richmond Hill, NY, Aunt Phyllis McElwaine, and cousin, Christopher Fliearman.

He is survived by his parents Roy Cogger Sr. and Debra Fliearman Cogger, grandparents, Rose and Richard Fliearman of Byron Center and Alberta Hodges of Archie Missouri, auntie Marilynn Cogger, sister, Natosha Acker Knight of Alverado, TX, brothers, R.J. Cogger and Jennifer Crawford of Hudsonville, Nathan Cogger of Hastings, best friend Dennis Mullins of Hastings, cherished nieces and nephews: Jacob, Jacey, Alexander, Carolynn and Emma, great nephew and niece, Jackson and Allie, many aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
