Our thoughts and prayers go out to Jennifer Garner for her tragic loss

Jennifer Garner has had a successful career in Hollywood, but she has also stayed close to her parents.

The actress wrote on social media on Monday that her dad had died. He was 85 years old.

William John Garner was Jennifer Gardner’s dad. Who was he?
KBTX News 3 says that William John “Billy” Garner went to Texas A&M University and got his Bachelor of Chemical Engineering in 1961 and his Master of Chemical Engineering in 1976.

Stephen Garner was the dad of Jennifer Garner, Susannah Kay Garner Carpenter, and Melissa Garner Wylie.

Pat Garner, their mother, was his wife for almost 60 years.Jennifer wrote a blog post on January 1, 2024, to celebrate her parents’ 59th wedding anniversary.

“Happy 59th wedding anniversary to my loving and sweet parents!” “Thank you, Mom and Dad, for making sure my sisters and I had a safe and happy childhood,” she wrote.

She was born in Texas and grew up in Charleston, West Virginia.

The Hindustan Times says that William worked for Union Carbide as a chemical engineer.

What killed William John Garner?

“My dad died in peace on Saturday afternoon.” When he left, we were with him and sang “Amazing Grace.” Did we carry him across or scare him away? That’s a good question. “The death of an 85-year-old man who lived a healthy, happy life is not a tragedy, but I know that grief is inevitable and can come up at any time,” she wrote.

“Today is a day to be thankful,” she said.

“We are thankful for Dad’s kind nature and quiet strength.” For the way he teased with a sly grin and made up the part of the all-in, always-patient girl dad. He has a strong work ethic, is a good leader, and has faith.

But Jennifer did say that William was treated at Charleston Area Medical Center and City of Hope. She did not say what killed William.

“We want to thank the medical staff at Charleston Area Medical Center and City of Hope.” Your care made Dad’s life longer and gave him more time to do the things he loved, like being with his daughters and grandchildren, cheering for his beloved Aggies, being in charge of a boat, and most of all, being next to our mom, his wife of 59 years.

My sisters and I will never get tired of talking about how great my dad was, so please bear with us. For now, I’m sharing these memories to show how grateful I am for the kind and smart man, father, and grandfather he was, as well as the loving legacy he left behind.

My Boss Terminated Me for Wearing Thrift Store Attire – My Colleagues Came to My Defense and Delivered a Powerful Lesson

When the company owner barged in and abruptly fired me for wearing second-hand clothes, my world imploded. Little did I know, my co-workers were planning an act that would turn everything around and emphasize the true strength of our workplace community.

Never did I think that buying clothes from a thrift store would cost me my job. But life’s full of surprises, especially when you’re a single mother struggling to make ends meet.

It began like any other Tuesday morning. I was at my desk, taking calls and welcoming clients with my usual cheer. The office buzzed with its routine hustle — keys clacking, printers working, and the aroma of fresh coffee in the air.

Kate from HR peeked around the corner. “Hey Claire, how are the kids?”

“Oh, you know,” I chuckled. “Sophie’s engrossed in her science project, and Noah’s set on memorizing every dinosaur name.”

Kate smiled. “Sounds like you have your hands full.”

“Always,” I said. “But I wouldn’t trade it for the world.”

Just then, the elevator chimed. The doors opened to reveal a familiar face I hadn’t seen in over a year — Victor, the company owner.

Panic surged through me. I quickly stood, smoothing my thrift store blouse. “Good morning, Mr. Harrison! Welcome back!”

Victor’s eyes narrowed at me, his expression hardening. “What are you wearing?”

I glanced at my outfit, puzzled. “I — ”

“Is this how you present yourself to our clients?” he demanded loudly. “In these… these rags?”

The office fell silent, every eye on us.

“Mr. Harrison, I — ”

“No excuses,” he interrupted. “A receptionist’s attire should reflect our brand. You’re terminated. Leave immediately.”

My world spun. “But sir, I’m a single mom. I can’t — ”

“Out!” he shouted. “Now!”

Tears stung as I gathered my belongings. Kate tried to intervene, but Victor silenced her with a glare.

The drive home was a blur. How would I explain this to Sophie and Noah? How would we survive? I unlocked our apartment door, and there they were — my little warriors.

Sophie instantly knew something was wrong. “Mom, what happened?”

I hugged them close, the smell of grape juice and play-doh soothing me. “I lost my job today, sweethearts.”

Noah hugged me tighter. “It’s okay, Mommy. We still love you.”

I stifled a sob. “I love you too, munchkins. So much.”
