Uncle Gary was so soft spoken, never an angry word, even if he had to explaiin things twice, although at that point he would include a drawing! He was the best husband Aunt Margaret or anyone could wish for. He always made sure you were comfortable and I will miss him sooo much. Now we have the memories he has left with us to remember him by. All the funny stories he told us throughout the years. He will truely be missed by all.
