Lynn, my sincerest condolences for your loss. I've known Gary since the first grade. He lived next door to my grandparents and cousins on Columbus and I lived on Robbins. I remember going to his summer cabin on Pontoosuc Lake. Tucker Elementary, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th grades, he was really my best friend. Great memories. I was very sad to read the news. Best to you!
