Its impossible to except the fact that your gone, so I won't.. it'll be like we went a while without seeing each other. They say time heals all, but everyday that passes it only gets harder, and I find myself missing you more. Theres not a day that goes by where I don't think about you, I hope you still think about me too! I love you Gar.

Dear Gary,
I just found out today of your passing. I now know your pain has ended. You were a wonderful man under all that pain may you now rest in peace. I will never forget you and how you showed me how to love. The "almost kisses" bring me such smiles. I know that you tried so hard to fight your battles I was there with you for a short time. I wish I could have seen you one last time. You will never be forgotten. You have a very special place in my heart. I will love you always.

One minute I’m sad, the next I’m smiling recalling fun times with Gary. It didn’t matter if he hadn’t seen you in ten years or ten days he always had a big smile, a big hug and lots of laughter to share. Gary laughing is a memory to keep.
Shirley & Family my thoughts are with you and may memories comfort you at this time of sorrow.

I never knew Gary, but am a friend of Scott and his family in Georgetown. Knowing Scott, Gary must have been a great man. I am deeply sorry for your loss and may the Lord's face shine down upon you and be gracious to you in this time of need.

I was blessed to have seen Gary twice in the last few months. When Leo died he was there and so sad at his passing. I spent a couple of nights with his Mom in August and I remember Gary seemed so happy and really enjoyed going out on his motorcycle. God wanted Gary with Him. We will never quite understand why now but, we have to believe it is the best for Gary. I'm glad Leo was with Herbie to greet him. I will look out for your Mom for you as best I can. Love you, Jane
