Gary was our neighbor for 33 years. Gary always called it the way he saw it. He was generous with his time, he could fix anything, he had unflappable energy - what you saw was what you got. What a guy. John and I will miss our dear neighbor.

May God fill your hearts with special memories of times shared together, to help fill the void in your life that the loss of your loved one has left. Until that time may the Lord continue to hold you in the palm of his hand, giving you the peace and comfort, that only He can provide, to sustain you through this most difficult time in life.

Hugs from Barb's sis,

Gary was so good to my sister, Carol. He was awfully nice to our children as well. He could fix about anything and was always so modest about doing it. He is a true gentleman who my family and I are forunate to have known. Scott and Cindy Bender

We'll really miss Gary. He was both a good brother-in-law and a fine friend. He never pulled his punches and always gave you the straight, unadorned truth.
