Gary was just an absolutely wonderful man. Back when I was privileged to be his pastor, he made sure to introduce me around to all the folks at the fire house. He always watched out for me, and I will always remember him fondly. May he rest in the peaceful arms of our Savior, until we meet again.

Dear Cookie, I am so sorry for the loss of your loving husband and friend, Gary. You loved each other for a long time and made so many wonderful memories together. It was so unfortunate he suffered from brain cancer that also tortured both your lives until the very end. However you were there by his side giving him your loving care despite his deterioration was wearing away at your heart. I had many happy times spending summers when I was in high school. We went camping Gary taught me how to water ski. We would play Crazy 8's until 2 AM when we went camping. We had great times together. I love you very much and wish we could be there with you to offer you hugs and comfort. May Gary Rest In Peace. GOD BLESS YOU. A donation was made in his honor to the Glomerul.org.

Dear Cookie, Jeanine, Billy and Families, Gary was a man of "little words" but a Man with a Big Heart!!! We have fond memories of our families sharing special events, and swimming in your backyard pool!!! Boat Rides especially when Billy turned "Green" and you had to get back to land quickly; and my children having fun in the Firehouse getting on the fire trucks! Always there for each other when we needed support through rough times! You were a dedicated husband, father and grandfather and a "Great Cousin" who loved to eat hamburgers!!!! It is time for you to Rest In Peace and continue to Sail the Seas in Heaven! I know you will continue to watch over your Family! Love you Gary JoAnn, Billy, JoAnn, Tom, Jeanine, Larry, Billy Boy, Caitlin and Thomas
