Gary,
It seems like it was just yesterday when I first met you, along with John. How I remember it, it was always...Gary & John...John & Gary, no matter where we were. I will hold on to the many memories you have shared with not only me but so many other friends. All the fun times at Trexler Park, Tom Grey's cabin, Leaser lake and of course the crazy times in my basement, will never be forgotten. My greatest memory I have that continues to play around in my head,is YOUR LAUGH!!! and I know I'm not the only one that remembers that. You were taken from all of us too early, but do know that you will live on in all of us because of all the loving memories you left us with.
Gayle, Gary was a fun loving friend and will be greatly missed, my sincere sympathy to you and your family.

Gary's passion for fixing up bikes, motorcycles, and ATVs started as a young teenager and never stopped. He used his talent to find and fix up a special Honda ATV for his nephew, Logan Yost. We will all miss you Gary. Love, your sister Valerie

Gail & Family,
So sorry to hear of Gary's passing. He was a great neighbor who made sure my driveway was always cleaned in the winter so I did not have to go out in the cold. It won't be the same without seeing him washing the cars. He was a terrific guy and a wonderful son and brother. He will be missed. Please take comfort in the great memories you will always have of him.
Cathy
