Gary was an Amazing man, and it truly broke my heart when I heard of his passing. I enjoyed getting to know him, and listening to his stories and the love he had for his family. He used to drop the invoices off to KJ builders, and every time he walked in he had the biggest smile on his face. He brought so much joy to everyone he was around. I will miss him dearly. I am praying for all of his family and friends during this difficult time.

Gary was one or the finest young men I have ever known. One of my son Grant's dearest friends, Gary was a "yes sir, no sir" kind of kid from the first day I ever met him. I never saw him without that terrific smile! I know his family has to be justifiably proud of the kind of young man he became to be!

I was heartbroken when I found out yesterday about Gary passing away. Gary and Cala were such an amazing support to me during grad school. I loved to hang out and laugh with them. He was a very special man who really touched me. Cala I am sorry that we lost touch over the years after grad school. I still think of you often. I will be remembering you and your family. I will cherish the memories of good talks and all the laughs I was blessed to share with you and Gary.

Gary you will truly be missed, I have been shook to the core of my very being with hearing of your name being called by our heavenly father, I can honestly say that you were a good person, you were alot of things to alot of people, I always wondered how could one have a heart so huge, I cannot come up with words to express my deepest sympathy to Cala and your parents, they were truly blessed to have you in their lives, I remember when I went through my divorce you said "Rhett, hun, you will be okay, your a strong woman", I didnt not belive you and I told you I didnt and as the years went by you said "Love you made it, keep up the good work". Your passing has inspired me to be a better me and love others with the true love of GOD, you are already missed just knowing you are gone...
