We are sad to announce that, on January 17, 2026, at the age of 54, Garfield Anthony Watson (Cedar Knolls, New Jersey) passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

As we bid farewell to this cherished soul, solace is taken in the memories held dear — the laughter shared, the wisdom imparted, the moments of quiet reflection in their presence. Though Garfield may no longer walk among us, his spirit lives on in the echoes of his kindness, the warmth of his embrace, and the light of his enduring love.

“Garfield was knowledgeable, hardworking, and genuinely kind—an exceptional supervisor who led his team with good humor & care. I will always hear his booming greeting, a joyful, “HELLO BOSS!” His calm, no-worries spirit and remarkable ability to train and uplift others never wavered. He was seen, deeply appreciated, and truly valued by me. I will miss him greatly. My heart aches for his daughters, whose futures he was so proud of. His presence, kindness, and legacy will not be forgotten.”
