I just found out today that Gary passed away. He was my cousin and I remember how he loved God and how faithful he was to God. Such a wonderful and compassionate man. I remember when he lived across the street from Aunt Agnes and my brother Bobby, my sister Mae and I would go over and play tether ball with his sons. Praying for his family. Love you

So, many words left unsaid but so many lessons learned and kept close to the heart. You have more than earned your wings to fly and in the clouds of peace. May you know that Toots and Montana will be ok for we will always look after them and your presence will always be with us all. Will miss you and all your funnies but the laughter of the memories will last a life time and some to hand down to the younger generations. Thank you for all you have done for this family and friends.

I'm sorry to hear of Gary's passing. I knew Gary for many years, both from his position at ACDC and from him working for me as part-time police officer when I was Chief at Holmesville PD. Gary was very caring and compassionate as an officer and as a person in general. Thank you Gary for a lifetime of caring for others.
