To My Love, My Life Partner,
Words can't be spoken to describe the emptiness I feel since your passing 4 years ago.I was so very blessed to share my life with you and I thank our Lord every day for you and your love.We had a marriage that people only dream of.I truly know what unconditional love is-we had it.The days since we first met passed so quickly, there weren't enough of them.You were one of the Lords' greatest creations, truly "golden".You were my life,my sunshine on a dark day,...

Dear Gary,
It's so hard for me to believe that it's almost 3 years since you left us. I'm so sorry for being so selfish and wanting you to stay in our lives to a ripe old age like everyone else. Unfortunately that was no to be since God needed a Guardian Angel who be so compassionate and loving someone who would probably work with the little kids who he had to bring to heaven so you were his chosen one. He called you and like always you didn't complain, even though you had to leave a...

I will always have fond memories of the boyfriend of one of my sisters who became the big brother I never had. Things we did together, took me for my first ride in a convertible. Gary would take me with him when he went to play fast pitching so I could play at the park. He took me fishing with him and one I will always remember is when I caught a nice size trout and he let me bring it home. We put it in the bathtub for a while bit then we knew we had to get him out before Mom came home. I put...

We miss you Uncle Gary and you will always be in our hearts and memories. Rest in Peace. Love,

We were so sorry to hear about Gary. He was one heck of a guy. We couldn't have picked a better neighbor. Always cherish your wonderful memories.

We all have so many memories of Uncle Gary and we miss him most at the holiday's and times of thanks and laughter. He is up in heaven watching down on all of us and smiling knowing the joy that we all give to each other. Even though some days will never be the same, he will always be there in memory and in our hearts forever. We send all our love.

Two years now, and the sting of his loss is still with us. Gary's fierce love of his family, his fortitude and decency will always live on. Gary,brother and friend, we'll always love you and we miss you terribly.

I have such fond memories of you Uncle Gary. All the basketball games at Nana and Gramp's, you and Uncle Lenny's Christmas gift exchanges, your laugh, how you were with kids, you picking out my first car... I will always remember you and smile. I'm sorry you weren't here to meet my girls, but I know you're up there with Nana and Gramp looking over all of us. I love you and miss you Uncle Gary. Rest in peace.

I never knew him as Gary or Mr. Brody, it was Catfish. I was young when Catfish was our neighbor, he ALWAYS made me laugh and was ALWAYS joking with us. I am so sorry for your loss Rayleen, Jenny & Chad. He was such a great neighbor, I can only imagine how lucky your children were to have him as a grandpa! Miss you Catfish!
