Peter Garnett Obituary
The death of Peter Richard Garnett of Saint John, N. B., occurred on Tuesday, October 22, 2024, at the Saint John Regional Hospital. He was born in Saint John, N. B. on November 7, 1953, and was the son of the late Peter and Geraldine (Richard) Garnett. Peter is survived by his brother, Robert (Brenda) Garnett of Saint John; sisters, Eileen (Stuart) MacDonald of Rothesay and Janice (Greg) Stevens of Rockland, Ontario. He was survived by several nieces and nephews and great nieces and great nephews. He graduated from St. Malachy’s High School in 1973 and attended St. Francis Xavier University for 2 years. He was a member of the St. Malachy’s High School Basketball team. Peter was a top-quality snooker player, a member of the New Brunswick Snooker Association (Sports NB) and was a qualified official (referee) at the 1997 Canadian Snooker Championships held in Saint John NB.
After high school, Peter and some friends backpacked through Europe and saw so much of the continent. He stayed in the Canary Islands for a while and just enjoyed his time travelling. Peter always maintained his love of travel, throughout his life.
He was witty, easy going and had a lot of one liners. Peter loved music and was very giving. He started his career working for the City of Saint John Water and Sewage. Later, he became a member of the International Association of Heat and Frost Insulators Local 131, retiring a few years ago. After retirement, Peter lived life his own way and liked to go to the library uptown every morning and read for hours while there. He’d read a book a week. He was an avid sports fan, NFL and Yankees in particular, and he knew all of the statistics for each team and all of his favorite players. He had a head for numbers. Peter was a special man and will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Arrangements are entrusted to Fundy Funeral Home, 230 Westmorland Road (506-646-2424) where visitation will take place on November 4 from 2-4 & 6-8pm.

For those who wish, memorial donations made in Peter’s memory to Outflow Ministries would be appreciated by his family.
