Not sure what to say?

We are so sorry for your loss. Gary will be sadly missed.

I had the great fortune of knowing Gary through my dearest friend Marian. It was a honor to be a part of the their wedding so many years ago and a privilege to witness their long lasting love story. They truly were soulmates. I loved how Gar made Marian laugh and always involved himself in our conversations, interjecting his witty quips and stories erupting in thunderous roars of laughter. Thank you for making Marian happy. Rest In Peace May God hold you in the palm of his hand.

Shortly after losing "Axe", ran into Gary at St Paul's flea mkt.His hugs and kind words are still with me today. Give him a Big Hug Gar, go Phillies! Love we have put our hope in You, Psalm 33:22

Garret was a fun loving person. He was a caring person always checking with others to see how they were doing. He was a great husband and father to his wife and daughter. He was very kind to everyone. He was loved so much others would never hesitate to do anything for him. They say to have a strong sense of humor is a sign of intelligence, Gar proved this to be true. He loved nature and gardening. I will miss my childhood Pinewood friend.

I'll love you forever and I so miss your smiling face, warm heart and irrepressible humor...

After shared greetings the first thing Gary would ask me was Do you still have the fossil? LOL. It...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.

Gary was always fun to be around. Witty, full of curiosity and he got life and he knew how to be a friend. Most of us walk with or heads on rotation. Gary walked with his eyes searching the ground all around. We would be looking at stuff. Gary would be finding stuff. An avid John Prine fan, Gary would embellish Prine and it worked, most of the time. Our circle continues to shrink on one layer and grows in others. My condolences to your family and friends, old friend. I will celebrate your...
