He will be dearly missed by all those who knew and loved him. Visitation will be at Seale Funeral Home, Denham Springs, on Saturday, Jan. 24, from 1 p.m. until memorial service at 2 p.m., officiated by Rev. Willis Easley.

I to have great memories of Garry from our many hunting trips to Colorado. As said he always had a smile on his face even when he broke a leg on the first trip. He will always remain a part of my memories. For all who love him and miss him we must remember Garry has moved on to a better place and it is only left up to us to follow.
