Garrett Michael Gardner was born in Colorado Springs, Colorado, January 17, 1991. He died unexpectedly, early September, 2018 in a rural community outside of Crdoba, Argentina.
Garrett was a fearless adventurer, traveling to sixteen countries. He was a joyous skier, rock climber, backpacker, soccer player and musician. His heart to include people in everything he did, meant he introduced many others to adventure also.
Always seeking a chall-enge, he chose to study medicine after graduating from Air Academy High School in 2009. In 2018 Garrett earned his MD from the Argentina National University of
Crdoba School of Medicine. Garrett was a loving and caring doctor, friend and family member because he knew the kindness and love of his Savior, Jesus Christ.
He is survived by his parents, Gentry and Gayleen Gardner; his brothers, Gabriel and Gannon; his grandparents, Ted and Shirley Klingsmith, Mayola Carpenter and Gary Gardner; nineteen cousins; nine aunts & uncles; his niece, Olivia; and innumerable friends around the world.

To Garrett's family and friends, I send my sincerest apologies for the loss of your beloved one. Losing a young man who is full of life to death is never what God intended, yet He promises to restore to life again those who are asleep in death. -1 Thessalonians 4:14
