Not sure what to say?

Annette- I can´t believe it´s been 3yrs since you lost Gary! I think of you often. You were a dear friend and such a caring nurse and person. I hope you are well

Annette I hope my card reached you. I am so very sorry to hear about Gary! What a wonderful man! My prayers are with you and your children. Lynn Polo

Annette I am so sorry to hear about Gary. He was a great guy and well loved. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

I've been gone from Windsor for over a half century and hadn't seen Gary since he was just "a kid" in the late 1950's/early 1960's. I do remember that he was a good kid (he could hardly have been anything else, being the son of John and Ann Barath), so it's not surprising that he turned out to be a good man, too. I went to dental school at Ohio State, graduating in 1974, so Gary and I apparently overlapped there for a couple of years. I wish we'd known he was there - we small town folks...

I was a cubicle dweller at a software company in Ann Arbor some years back. When I was accused of being an OSU person, I would reel off a long list of family members who had gone there. I need to keep Gary in mind for the next time the accusation reoccurs.

My heart is broken for you all, may gods peace and comfort be with through these difficult days.

I don't know any of you but what a beautiful tribute to a man who was clearly a great guy! Comforting hugs to his family & friends. May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

I am still reeling from the news of Gary's departure. He was my friend for nearly 68 years and I keep thinking of topics we should talk about -- ideas and discussion that can now never get articulated. The day he arrived at the JB Farm, in 1954, still sticks in my mind. So do a raft of other early memories. We learned athletics together. A tree in his parents back yard served as second base for baseball games and as a goal post for football. We were both Buckeyes educationally, but...

May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.
