I write with a sad heavy heart but Gary has left many fond memories thru the years that frequently bring him up in our thoughts. I always think of him as kindhearted with a unique cheerful free-spirited attitude about life & willing to help in times of need-rescued me a few times from being stranded with car problem & had a way of giving a sense of reassurance working thru whatever the task at hand happened to be. Gone too soon, he will be greatly missed by many! Thankful to have known him and for the precious memories left to help all through this period of grief & in future tough days as he lives on in the hearts of loved ones. We are keeping Gary & family in our prayers.
