My parents Bob and Louise Wagner taught Gary to bowl at Park Laynes when he was a teenager and then years later was their realtor. For the past 2 years he has owned the condo I live in. When my husband died in August, Gary couldn’t have been nicer. He was a wonderful man. My deepest sympathy to his family, and friends.
