Gary A. Banas

I was just talking about your dad and mom the other day. I admired them so much for their lives of service. They were so intelligent and fun!

Gary was one of a kind.
Everyone in our family has good and different memories of the time we spent with him. He still comes up in family conversations ❤

To the Banas Family: I extend my sincere sympathy for your loss and hope you are doing ok. As a young person, I caddied for Gary on a regular basis on Saturdays in the early to mid 70s. I was always there early and passed other jobs sooner in the day to have the opportunity to work for Gary and Frank Lucas. I enjoyed them so much and they were such class acts. Gary's outlook and life, humor, and the way he treated me and others were top notch. Sounds corny but my life was enriched every...

It has been such a pleasure knowing your family over the years. Our family has had the highest repect for the faith, honor, humilty and intelliegence of the Banas family. Gary was a prime example of how a Christian should live his life. Bonny is his equal in all things. He served at Cathleen's wedding and came to visit my mother in her last months. He did evrything and anything to serve God. We praise his memory and raise you all to feel God presence with your grief. Much love

I enjoyed meeting Gary and Bonny while working at Rose Lane. Gary was always willing to share a smile, a laugh, or even a coveted Oreo cookie! He loved to show me the picture on his pillow case of his grandchildren and tell me their names. I consider it a privilege to have witnessed your extraordinary love for one another, and pray that your memories will carry you through this difficult time.

Banas Family..I had the pleasure of working with Gary and meeting Bonnie at Roselane. I pray that God gives you grace and faith to endure this trying time and may your memories hold him close to you for eternity.

It has been an honor and a pleasure to work with Gary and Bonny at Rose Lane. Your love, faith and great sense of humor have been evident since we met the two of you. You have our sincere sympathy.

When I thank the Lord for the people who instructed me in my youth, Gary and Bonny Banas are right up at the top of the list. I have such wonderful memories: being in Gary's Sunday School class, youth group fun, writing a play with Gary, visiting at his house, and the encouragement offered at the beginning of our marriage. Gary was a blessing to so many. He will certainly be missed. May God comfort you all in the coming days.
