From the first time I called on Gary for work he struck me as someone who loves to laugh, loves his family, and is a genuinely good person. I will miss the opportunity to get to know him better and my heart truly goes out to all of his family and friends. I will be praying for you all and hope that you find some comfort in faith, the love from friends, and memories that will never go away.

Beverly, our sincere condolences. We really enjoyed the time we got to spend with Gary and you while we were at the Mayflower. When I arrived at the hotel in 1999 I realized the tremendous challenge Gary and his team had with maintaining that grand 75 year old hotel. His repair and maintenence budget was severely under funded so I made a deal with Gary that if I could get permission from the owners to spend the necessary money to fix up the Mayflower on the condition that we dramatically increased profits, could Gary lead his team to accomplish the job. Gary told me he definitely could and he and his team did it. Amazing, and this was all because of Gary's outstanding leadership, work ethic, strong character and his pride in the Mayflower. He was the best Chief Engineer I ever worked with in my 34 years with Marriott. It was an honor to work beside him. He was a good man!

Take care,

Love, George and Kathy Cook

Bev and family, you are in my prayers for I have some idea of what you are going through, although no one can feel your sorrow and loss; may the love and support that each one is able to give help to ease the pain just somewhat. May God watch over you as he has been for me since Barry died in July, 2010. Always remember the good times you had together.

Since I met Gary 36 years ago I loved him dearly. He was my husband Tom's best friend since childhood, and he was a great friend to all as he had a heart of gold. We had many things in common, our love of music, Zappa, Star Trek and much more. We had the most fun and best times when we visited. The reunions, the 50th birthday party, the late nights in the backyard deck were some of the most fun and cherished memories of my life. I can't get over that this happened so soon. Beverly there are no words to exprees the sorrow that I feel for you, and I know that you are going through a very difficult time. We are here for you whatever you might need, even though we are far away.
We will miss Gary forever, this void will never be filled.

Bev, we were so sorry to hear of your loss. Our thoughts and love go out to you and your family. Gary will long be remembered in many of our hearts. (Kathy & Jeff Walker)

My friend for many years...heartfelt condolences to the family. Saddens me that we lost touch, after being so close. Many memories come to mind as I pay tribute and remember the bike rides, canoe trips, brew time, overall enjoyment of his wit and spending time with friends. I will not forget you, my friend.
