Gary Jr.,
I was sorry to hear of the passing of your father. Gary Jr and I worked together at UPS and I just so happened to be looking in the paper and ran across that your dad had passed. I will keep you and your family in my prayers.

Our deepest sympathy to the family. Gary was Mrs. Alma's heart and we know she will miss him dearly. But God knows she has been a GREAT Mother to him and now that she is no longer able to be in Gary's life, she can take comfort knowing that our "Father" in heaven will receive Gary in his Kingdom and watch over her always.
Be Blessed and know that we will always be there for you.
