Sharon, Amanda and Joshua,

We are praying for you at this time. It has been over a week and I still can't believe Gary is gone. The Lord knows the pain your are feeling. Keep your eyes on the Lord and know that He will guide you through this painful time.

Aunt Helen and Uncle Jack,

I can't even imagine the emotions you are feeling. You have been like parents to me and my cousins were more like brothers and sisters. I love you and will be praying for you as well.

Gary was a man with a heart for others and he will be sorely missed. That was evident by the people at his memorial service.

Love to all of you,
Cindy, Kevin, KJ and Angela

Sharon and Family,
Forever you have touched our family. It was at Victory that our children became friends. There are no words, nor comfort that can match that of the Lord. I pray for you, and the children. All the children. Gary was fun and an amazing man. I will help in any way I can. There are many needs you now have and I ask God for direction, peace, and his love to wash over your family. My love through Christ, always. Mary, Katie and Paige Gabbert

Dear Sharon & Family;
There are no words to express my sympathy for your loss. Gary and I were work partners for many years, which allowed me the opportunity to get to know him very well. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Sharon and Family,

May the gentle mercy that God has shown be with you now so you will know you are not alone, and may the prayers of others help in some small way to bring you peace and comfort and courage for each day.
With Sympathy and prayers of peace,
