David William Garner, Jr.

d. October 9, 2024

David William Garner Jr died peacefully at Richland Memorial Hospital on October 9, 2024 in Columbia, South Carolina at the age of 52, following a long battle with cancer.

David is survived by his father, David Garner Sr.; Wife of 27 years, Amanda Garner; Children, Paige Smith, Austin Garner, Kailynn Garner, and Cayden Garner; and one grandson, Luca Smith.

David was born in Columbia, South Carolina to David William Garner Sr and Patrica Lousie (Higgins) Garner, and lived there most of his life. He married his high school sweetheart, Amanda, in 1997.

His children remember him as a passionate and devoted christian.  He always pushed them to be the best version of themselves, knowing they could accomplish anything they set their minds to.

David was a hard working man who believed that anything in life worth having could be worked and fought for. Up until his last diagnosis with bone cancer he worked everyday through the pain. He never questioned working through the pain, because he knew that he wanted to support his family.

David was passionate about many things. He loved being in nature, and would go hunting or fishing any opportunity that he had. He was a die hard Clemson fan, and whenever they were winning you could see a smile on his face. He was also handy with anything someone might need around the house. Anything anyone needed, they knew they could call David and he would be more than willing to assist. It did not matter if it was simply moving an electrical outlet to a different location on a wall, or fixing the plumbing or electrical work in your home. If you needed help, he would be there, and he would do it well.

The funeral is scheduled for 2pm on Sunday October 13 at Greenlawn Memorial Park. Dee Pardue will officiate the ceremony. All are welcome to attend and celebrate David's life.
