In a heartbreaking announcement on social media, Jennifer Garner, the beloved Hollywood star, shared the news of her father’s passing. William Garner, aged 85, left this world on April 1. Garner expressed her grief, describing it as something that “waits around unexpected corners.”
Garner had a strong bond with her father, which she often shared with her fans. In January, she celebrated her parents’ 59th wedding anniversary by posting heartwarming photos on Instagram. Yesterday, she took to social media once again, sharing a collection of family pictures and expressing her feelings about her father’s passing.
She wrote, “My dad passed peacefully Saturday afternoon. We were with him, singing Amazing Grace as he left us. While there is no tragedy in the death of an 85-year-old man who lived a healthy, wonderful life, I know grief is unavoidable, waiting around unexpected corners.”
Garner expressed her gratitude for her father’s long life and the gentle demeanor he possessed. She fondly remembered the mischievous smile he often teased her with and how he played the role of a patient and supportive father. She recognized his work ethic, leadership, and strong faith.
William Garner was always a crucial figure in his daughter’s life. Their deep bond was evident to anyone who knew Jennifer Garner. In September of last year, Garner surprised her father on his 85th birthday by arranging a special gift. She took him for a ride in his childhood car, a 1948 Studebaker Champion, in their hometown of Charleston, West Virginia. This heartwarming gesture touched the hearts of many and made headlines.
