I worked many years with Gary in the Machine Shop, he was a straight up guy and a hard worker. He will be missed by all who knew him. May he rest in peace.

So very sad to learn of Gary's passing. He was a special longtime friend of the family. He was such a caring person and will be missed. Condolences and prayers to the family. Although I won't be able to attend the memorial service, you all will be in my thoughts.

Sharon, Howard, Dennis, Connie and Jessica. May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

So sorry to hear about your loss. You know that God and Jesus are in the best position to comfort us when we lose a loved one in death.

Gary was a great guy to work around. Was only around him about 1 year in the 90's.
