Garry I will always remember you from years and years ago - I loved when you came down to the house riding "Little Man", your horse and said, "Want to go for a ride?" I will never forget that day that I hopped on Little Man with you and we rode out of the driveway on Shaffer Lane up to Billtown Road and past Mama and Dads and went to Chenoweth Park!!!!! We rode forever - that is one of my best memories of you Garry - I love you and miss you so much and am so glad that you are riding (as Bobby said) in no pain - God bless your heart - I will always love you and miss you forever - Love Denise not the nephew but "The Niece"

For all of Garry's relatives ...

I am terribly sorry for your loss and the pain you must be feeling right now. Garry was a kind and gentle soul and because I knew him, I am that much better for it. He was was my first "real" boyfriend when I was in the 7th grade and I will always cherish the memory of that sweet time with him.
