GARLAN LAYFETTE BRIDGES, 76, passed away peacefully at Kingwood Medical Center on February 1, 2011.

He is also survived by sisters and brothers-in-law, Eloise and Walter Adams, Hilda and Mack Adams, Joyce and Chester Adams, Geraldine Gardner and numerous nieces, nephews and other loving family and friends. Garlan proudly served his country in the U. S. Army primarily stationed in Germany. He retired from Entex Gas Company after 38 years.
