Not sure what to say?

Gary and his family were welcome hosts to me , Mike Hoversen and many other Regis students. Each summer as school let out we would head east to our Chicago homes...but not without a stop at Gary's. We were always welcomed by loads of food and beer! My condolences to his lovely wife Lou and their family. Mike " Moe" Conway

A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reservist - is someone who at one point in his/her life wrote a blank check made payable to "the United States of America," for an amount of "up to and including his/her life." That is Honor and there are far too many people in this country who no longer understand it! God Bless :)

Lorraine, I'm thinking of you and your family. KC says you're doing well but I'm sure it's hard nevertheless. I look forward to seeing you this summer and giving you a huge hug! You're an amazing woman and can handle anything but I know this is difficult even for you. Just know, our sympathies and love are with you.

May all the great memories help you get through this most difficult time. Our prayers are with you and your family. Fred and Penny Copps

So sorry to hear of your loss! Gary will be miss by all that knew him. He will leave a hole in the hearts of many. Stay strong!

I remember Gary, Bonnie, and their parents from summers at the Don K Ranch outside Pueblo, Co, a long time ago.

Loraine, I remember mike hoversen Dennis Russell and myself making end of school year trips to Gary's house to load up on beer, steaks, partying, sleep and gas light sq. bars. He was a kind, generous gentleman that had a quiet way of making the people around him better persons. So, I am a better man for having known him. Moe Conway

Sorry Bonnie. He was a great guy.

I was so sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time of sorrow.
