Not sure what to say?

I just found out about Gary´s passing, and am so very sorry to hear!! Our hearts and thoughts are with you on his passing!!!

I remember going to Salem united methodist church with him and his family and attending a church bbq at there house and swimming with the kids and seeing the alpacas and learning all about them. He was a good man and will be missed.

I´ve been in touch with Dr. Gary and Toni since we first explored the idea of purchasing one of his clinics. I always enjoyed speaking or writing back-and-forth over these years. The talent they both have in the veterinary industry, was only exceeded by his common sense and hands-on ingenuity. He displayed throughout his life.

Dr. Gary was not just our vet but a true friend to us. His skills as a vet and surgeon were phenomenal. Dr. Toni our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Don't know this gentleman, but it was life well lived..rest in peace

Dr. Gary was an amazing mentor. He and Dr. Toni changed my life as they got me plenty of opportunities to learn and gain experience and grow into the practitioner that I am today. It was already almost 26 years ago that started working for Dr. Gary and Dr. Toni at The Animal Medical Center here in Findlay. Dr. Gary was an amazing surgeon and I loved how he would want to work on anything any case no matter how complex. He teached me a lot. I will never forget him. My condolences to Dr. Toni....

So sorry to hear of Gary´s passing. Much love to the whole family.

We are so very sorry to learn of the passing of Gary. We enjoyed many conversations with him and his love of alpacas and camels. Toni, you are in our thoughts and prayers during this time of mourning May Gary be in the safety of Christ joyfully awaiting a heavenly reunion with his beloved family.
