Deanna Lynn Garrison

Deanna Lynn Garrison was born on October 26, 1966 in Wichita, KS, and passed away surrounded by family and friends on November 11, 2026.
Deanna had beautiful blue eyes and a contagious smile! She was spunky and ornery, always adding humor to life. More than a great friend, daughter, and sister, she loved her son, Derrick, with her whole heart. Throughout her life, she spent 20 years as a research analyst at the Kansas Corporation Commission. Her favorite pastimes were crafting, watching NASCAR and the St. Louis Blues Hockey, and spending as much time with her grandchildren as possible!
Deanna is survived by her son, Derrick Garrison (Kesha); and her grandchildren, Ellie, Emmett, and Delanie; her brother, Bret Garrison (Judy); her sister, Kristi Kreutzer (Todd); and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, cousins, and dear friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Douglas and Linda Garrison, and her sister, Shannon Garrison.
Deanna's services will be held at Smith Mortuary, 1415 N. Rock Rd., Derby, KS 67027 on November 20, 2026 at 1 PM. Visiting hours from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM.
To honor Deanna's legacy, feel free to wear her favorite color, purple, as we celebrate a life well-lived and her eternal resting place in heaven.
