Not sure what to say?

Although we hadn’t seen Gary in the office the last few years, I always like working with him . He left behind a great family who will miss him dearly. ((Hugs)) to all of you. Diane Coutts

My wife and I met Gary & Judy through the Barnacopia. We catered many events there and they were awesome to work with. Gary has touched so many lives in such a good way. What a great guy. He really liked his sweets so we would always slip a dessert into the fridge for Gary. He especially liked Donna's vanilla bean cheesecake. He will definitely be missed by many. Condolences & prayers for the family. God Bless!

Gary and Judy hosted me as a visiting artist many years ago. I have so many fond memories of my week with them, drawing the view from the top of the grain bin, and riding in the yellow Hummer. My deepest sympathy to the family. May your memories bring you some comfort. I am sure he will be missed.

My Deepest Sympathy to Mark and Dan and your families.
You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I am one of the younger cousins, so unlike Carol I never got to cause trouble with Gary, but I heard stories! He will be missed! I am so glad I got to see him at Barnacopia in December. My sympathy to Mark, Dan, and the rest of the family. (Carol - I used to love visiting your parents. My siblings and I think about you and would love to reconnect.)

I remember getting into trouble with Gary in our youth. So sorry to hear of his passing. It's been a very long time since I saw him, but I have fond memories.

Gary and I were friends from childhood all the way to adults. We shared lots of good times. I will miss him horribly. Jim D
