Kenny Babauta Garrido

Kenny grew up in Agat, Guam. He graduated from George Washington High School in Mangilao, Guam. After high school he served in the United States Army and retired after 20 years of honorable service. While in the Army he served in Operation Desert Storm/Shield and was awarded many decorations, medals, badges and campaign ribbons. After his service in the Army he continued to serve as an Army Civilian as an IT Specialist.

He enjoyed spending time with and caring for his family. It was the little things he did to show his family how much he loved them and how big his heart was. His strong faith in God further enabled him to be a kind-hearted, caring, selfless and compassionate man to everyone he encountered. Kenny had a great sense of humor and could always bring a smile and a laugh to someone who needed it. He enjoyed cooking, sewing, fixing up computers, walking the trails, working around the house, gardening and loved the L.A. Lakers.

Kenny is survived by his loving wife of 37 years, Diana Elizabeth Cook Garrido of Agat, Guam; his daughters Mellissa Dean, Tanisha Garrido and Amanda Engelberth; Son-in-law, David Dean; grandson, Ethan Dean (Papa's pride and joy); siblings: Joe, Arleen, Steven, Johanna, Jimmy, Carol, Earl and Rhea.
