Not sure what to say?

I was at MHS with Gary and worked with him at Arthur's Bar. I will miss him I have not seen him in 40 years. I don't know why I googled his name today 3/4/09... my sympathy to the family.

Our sympathy to the friends & family. Blessed are they that mourn for they shall be comforted.

Hunting is hard work at Arnold's house in the Catskills

I enjoyed Gary's friendship during the many years at Sextons in Seaford, and as a hunting buddy at Arnold Buenker's house in the Catskills. He will be missed, but his humor and smiles never forgotten. He was the perfect hunting companion....fun...generous....and a lousy shot....lol......there are still plenty of deer up there who also think highly of him. Seriously, Heres to ya Gary!

Dear Peggy,
I was so sorry to hear of Gary's passing.I have so many wonderful memories of you in our Williston Park days (I believe your folks still live in my old house on Marcellus Rd.) and of Gary in Massapequa (mostly Tobay Beach) after I moved to Massapequa. He was a teriffic young man and I'm sure he remained so. He left you much too soon, but I was so pleased to see that he lived to see his grandchildren. My deepest sympathies to you and your entire family. Fondly, Lynn Carroll

Dearest Peggy, Mike and Family,
My thoughts and prayers are with you all during this very difficult time. May you find the strength you need at this time. Sincerely, and with Love, Frances Medina and Family
