D. Gary Klempnauer

Gary was an inspirational person! More people like Gary would make this world a better place. Thank you for sharing his talents and person with us.

I´m very sorry for your loss Amie and Stace.Gary was my pastor growing up in Seven Hills when I was in junior high and he left me with many fun and positive memories. Tom "Woody" Reed

Our sincerest condolences to all the family. Rev. Gary married us 45 years ago today in Orangeville Methodist Church. He was truly a wonderful pastor and friend to us. We were just talking about him today and decided to try to find him. That's when we came across the obituary. Sadly he passed on my 65th birthday. Again are deepest sympathies.

Gary was our pastor when my father in law was ill.
I needed him spiritually and I needed transpotation to the hospital. He comforted me as we approached a difficult time. His humor and laugh helped me deal with death of a loved one.

May the God of all comfort and mercy, grant your family hope, and comfort during this difficult time. Jeremiah 29:11

Nan and Family,

My sincere condolences to you and your family. May your hearts soon be filled with joy and wonderful memories. God bless you.

I was very sad to hear about Rev. Klempnauer's passing. Gary was my family's minister in Garfield Hts.,OH at Hathaway UM Church back in the 1960's and early 70's. We were sad when he left. Several years later we moved to Seven Hills,OH and Gary was the minister at the UM Church there. The parsonage was also only a few houses down from our house, so he was a neighbor as well. I will always remember Gary's smile and laugh! My deepest condolences to his whole family.

I remember Rev Gary very well. I was organist at Sunbury when he served our church there. He also helped my sons with several of their Scouting badges. I will remember him fondly. He did many positive things in this earthly life . .Bette Hoke Roberts
