Gary “Chub” Lynn Jamison, age 59, of Garnett (formerly of Quinter), passed away Wednesday, September 14, 2016 at his residence in Garnett. He was born December 7, 1956 in Quinter, to William Richard and Anna Lucille (Garber) Jamison.
Gary grew up and always helped out on the family dairy farm. He enjoyed playing basketball and showing others tricks he learned to do with the ball. He was known for crafting latch hook rugs, having done well over a hundred in his lifetime. One thing many friends and family felt was remarkable about Gary was his ability to recall most anyone’s anniversary or birthday. He always looked forward to his birthday parties and especially enjoyed his pizza and Pepsi. Gary’s kind heart and ability to make anyone a friend will be missed by many.
Survivors include his two brothers, Calvin (Ethel) Jamison of Quinter, and Galen of Quinter; his sister, Janet (Galen) Edgecomb of Garnett; his brother-in-law, Leon (Loriene) Hirt of Westphalia; and his sister-in-law, Donna (Marlin) Flory of Modesta. Gary was preceded in death by his parents; two sisters, Maxine Jamison and Anna Mae Hirt; brother, Charles Jamison; and sister-in-law, Brenda Jamison.
Funeral service will be 1:30 p.m., Sunday, September 18, 2016 at the Quinter Grade School Gymnasium. Burial will be at the Big Creek Cemetery, southeast of Quinter.
Visitation will be Saturday, from 3 to 5 p.m. and 6 to 8 p.m., at the Old German Baptist Church, at the intersection of X and 76 Roads, southeast of Quinter.
The family requests and suggests any gifts or contributions of love, instead of flowers, be given to the Gove County Medical Center, Long Term Care Facility or Hospice for the loving care given to Gary.
