00:15I stay busy, but in every quiet moment you are first and foremost in my thoughts.

00:20It's been a year, baby.

00:21We miss you so much.

00:22I miss you so much.

00:24She also offers fans a way to give back in his honor.

00:27I encourage everyone reading this to consider making a donation to your local animal shelter,

00:32rescue or humane society.

00:33This cause was close to Garrison's heart.

00:35He adopted all three of his cats from shelters.

00:38And indeed, in the accompanying photo she shared, Garrison can be seen smiling as he

00:42holds one of his cats to his shoulder.

00:45Written over the image was a quote from the 1996 film Dragonheart, which reads,

00:49To the stars, Bowen, to the stars.

00:51Janelle finished off her post with contact information for the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline.

00:56In the year since Garrison's passing, Janelle has drawn comfort from being with friends

01:00and family for certain milestones, including her first Thanksgiving without Garrison.

01:04She wrote December 1st alongside a younger photo of Garrison.

01:08First of the big holidays without you, sweetheart.

01:10We all gathered in NC to celebrate together and kept your photo close by.

01:14She continued,

01:15We laughed about your silly sense of humor, told so many stories honoring you.

01:19We ate, played games and enjoyed each other's company.

01:22Everyone is returning home now and normal life resumes tomorrow.

01:25But I feel you close by.
