Menefee; and his brothers-in-law, Joe Rowe, Adolph Sheffield and Roy Sheffield. He is survived by his wife of 70 years, Voncile Sheffield Gardner; his children, Tammie Kim (Mickey) Johnson, Angelia (James) Mason, Rennie Lane (Becky) Gardner and Kenneth Michael (Libby) Gardner; his grandchildren, Kenneth Noah (Mary Beth) Gardner, Lauren (Blake) Brookshire, Tasha Richards, Ty Johnson, Jeromy Mason, Katie (Daeyoung) Lim and Emily Gardner; his great-grandchildren, Collier Edward Brookshire, Alyssa Hicks and Carlie Bouchillon; his siblings, Larry Menefee, Wayne Menefee, Wilma D.

A veteran of the Korean war, Mr. Gardner returned stateside to become a Regional Manager for G.E. His real passion was fishing as he spent many hours on Lake Martin with friends and family. But fishing was second only to his love for his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and his sweet wife.
