Gary Ballast

He was so kind to me and a bright spot in my life. My heart goes out to the rest of the family.

Gary was not only my renter on the channel, but a friend as well and he still owed me a boat ride. My sincere sympathy to his family. He will surely be missed! Val Johnston

Gary was a big hearted mischievous fellow all his life. He loved his family, boating, his friend group, Lake Michigan and Grand Haven. I will miss his laughter and the glimmer in his eyes when he thought of something outrageous to say.

My condolescences to Gary's family. He will be greatly missed. Particularly, our daily breakfasts at Russ'.
