His sister Maddie Brown shared a thoughtful tribute via Instagram on Sunday, March 10, she posted a photo of Garrison with her children. “My words seem to fall short,” she wrote. “Our hearts are broken and we are now consumed by the love we now leave behind for this beautiful brother. God be with you until we meet again. I see you at the gates of Valhalla, celebrating with our ancestors who fought before you. Until then, we must live in a grayer world without the light you brought.”
Maddie, 28, added a quote to her caption: “Grief, I’ve learned, is really just love. It’s all the love you want to give, but can’t. All the unspent love gathers in the corner of your eyes, the lump in your throat and in that sacred part of your chest. Sadness is just love where you can’t go.”
Gwendlyn Brown, one of Garrison’s half-siblings, reposted Maddie’s tribute via her Instagram Story. “Uncle Bob in his natural element ❤️,” she wrote, referring to Garrison by his first name. (He was born Robert Garrison.)

Kody and Janelle, meanwhile, announced their separation in 2022 after 30 years of spiritual union. Their breakup was partially due to Kody’s strained relationship with many of his children, especially Garrison and Gabriel, who disagreed with his strict COVID guidelines.
Janelle spoke exclusively We weekly in November 2023 that she hoped that in time there would be “peace” between her children and their father. “I feel like if there’s noise in relationships, especially in a parental relationship, it affects your life,” she said. “It affects them if they don’t have any good [relationship] with their father. So I hope things can get better in the future.”
The following month, Janelle revealed that some progress had been made with one of her sons. She explained Us in December 2023 that Kody is “kind of dating Garrison right now.”

She clarified that there was “a little bit” of conversation between the couple, “but there’s really no reconciliation.”
