Trammell Garnto

Obituary Date: Saturday, December 26, 2020

Trammell  Garnto,  age  75,  of  Dahlonega,  Ga.  passed  away  peacefully  Saturday,  December  26, 2020  with  his  children  and  grandchildren  by  his  side.   Trammell  is  preceded  in  death  by  his  wife  Glenda  Bracewell  Garnto,  his  parents  John  D.  & Bessie  Howell  Garnto,  4  of  his  6  brothers;  Nondas  Garnto,  Lonice  Garnto,  Prangle  Garnto,  & Melvin  Garnto,  his  2  sisters;  Lorene  Garnto  &  Inez  Bell  &  great  grandson  Charles  David  Garnto. Trammell  is  survived  by  his  children;  his  sons  Tommy  (Tammie)  Garnto  of  Lenoir  City,  TN.  & Charles  (Diane)  Garnto  of  Dahlonega,  Ga.,  his  daughter  Carolyn  (Sean)  Delehanty  of Dahlonega,  Ga.,  his  brothers  Jerry  (Frances)  Garnto  of  Dexter,  Ga.  &  Randall  (Jewel)  Garnto of  Dudley,  Ga. Trammell  has  5  loving  grandchildren  that  he  loved  with  all  his  heart:  Michael  Garnto  of Aragon,  Ga.,  Sabrina  (Kelly)  Haygood  of  Cartersville,  Ga.,  Daniel  (Cherokee)  Locklear  of Dahlonega,  Ga.,  Branden  Garnto  of  Gainesville,  Ga.  and  Antonio  Garnto  of  Dahlonega,  Ga.    He has  4  great  grandchildren;  Roselyn  Garnto,  Liam  Haygood,  Dylan  Garnto  &  Luca  Trammell Garnto.   Born  in  Laurens  County,  Ga.,  Trammell  graduated  from  Dexter  High  School  in  1964.  He  was  the youngest  of  the  family  and  remained  in  the  home  with  his  mother  and  her  twin  sister  until meeting  his  bride  Glenda  Bracewell.  They  wed  in  1966  and  started  a  family  in  1968.   Trammell  served  in  the  Army  National  Guard  for  nearly  20  years  combined.  He  worked  several years  at  Armstrong  in  Macon,  Ga  where  he  and  his  brother  Randall  would  carpool  for  many years.  Trammell  brought  his  family  to  Cherokee  County  in  1988.   Trammell  worked  hard  and  long  hours  for  many  years  to  provide  for  his  family.  He  was  the best Daddy and Papa that ever lived. He was a very selfless person and all of  us wish to  have a little  of  that  quality  he  gracefully  expressed  all  the  time.  He  will  forever  live  in  the  heart  of the ones  whose life he touched. He  retired  from  Underwood  Mold  Company  in  2014  and  moved  to  Dahlonega,  Ga.  with  his daughter  &  her  husband  to  be  closer  to  all  of  his  grandchildren. Trammell  is  an  amazing  soul  that  would  do  anything  for  anyone,  but  there  is  no  greater  love on  earth  than  the  love  he  has  for  his  family.    His  family  equally  loves him  the  same  way  and he  will  be  missed  until  each  of  us  see  him  again.
