There's been a lot of discussion on SB about Dr. Guy Garman's death while deep diving off St. Croix but the article below is the closest thing I've seen to an obituary notice. I feel that the many differences of opinion about his dive and death should be set aside for awhile so that he can be honored here in the Passings forum.

The following is a weekly listing of Nazarene ministers and leaders who recently went home to be with the Lord. Notices were received August 17-21, 2015...
Dr. Guy "Rusty" Garman, son of retired missionaries Larry and Addie Garman, passed away August 15 while attempting a deep dive world record. He was 56.
Rusty, who ran the Garman Ear, Nose, and Throat Center on St. Croix, planned the 1,200-foot dive for two years. The dive was projected to last more than 10 hours. Rusty was scheduled to meet up with two support divers — including his 20-year-old son, Kip — at an air station after 38 minutes, but Rusty never showed up...
...Larry and Addie, who served as missionaries in Peru for 45 years, say that they believe Rusty made peace with God sometime before the dive. Prayer is requested for the Garman family, especially Rusty's three children — Kip, Grant, and Leah.
