Unlike Hollywood he was married to his wife that he married in 1956. Classy guy.

Just a good all-around guy. Watch "The Americanization of Emily" sometime. It was his favorite role.

First rate guy for sure.....Really enjoyed "Gran Prix". He was a racer at heart and loved the Indy 500. Wish there were more folks like him.........RIP Mr Garner, you will be missed.

That sucks. He was one of my favorites too.

Maybe he is racing McQueen and Newman on that big race track in the sky...

There can be no tribute without a handbrake turn pic. RIP Mr. Garner.

I'm a little surprised he made it to 84 (but glad he did). He had been in poor health for a while due to a long history of smoking.
