Garratt was born Oct. 3, 1930 in Okmulgee, Okla., to parents Martin A. Hinchey and Jewel M. (Horton) Hinchey. She moved to Hollister at about age eight, attended Ausymas School and matriculated at San Benito Joint Union High School, Hollister with additional class work at Gavilan Community College, Gilroy.
She and deceased husband Clifford Garratt owned a bar and grill in Tres Pinos, outside of Hollister and a small restaurant in Hollister. She became a real estate broker affiliated with Richard Hall Realty in Hollister, then joined the personnel and safety department at Teledyne McCormick Selph of Hollister. From there she became office manager for Stan Jones Trucking Company of Hollister, then moved to the personnel desk for Jessup Transportation of Gilroy. She was safety assistant coordinator at a trucking company in Gilroy before retiring.
Garratt moved with her husband of 1983, Edward Stollery, from Hollister to Drain in January of 1999. Their property adjoins Elk Creek, and is in the northern part of Douglas County, where they have entertained, on various nights, wild cats, three deer and an elk or two, along with a flock of wild turkeys and quail, among others.
Garratt was a retired Worthy Matron of the Order of the Eastern Star of the Fraternal and Ancient Order of Masons. She “sat” all the chairs in the local organization and traveled on behalf of the Order, active in many of its good works in and around central California.
Her ashes will reside in Oregon, at the property, for the current time. At an undetermined time in the future she may rest in Hollister Cemetery, near her parents.
