Not sure what to say?

I grew up with Gary as young kids all through the 50's/early 60's as a neighbor in Baker OR. Gary was best friends in the Baker Cedar Acres/Park St. "hood" with my younger brother John and was one of the nicest kids in the world...incredible energy, always a friend to everyone, and always had that little grin of his. And yes, he could run with the wind. I can only imagine the loss this is for Dick and sister Lynnie. Godspeed Gary, we will be thinking of you.

I always have the best memories of Zack's Dad, Gary. When we were kids, I remember we would sneak into Gary's office to play on his computer. He was a great Father and never appeared to let much bother him. My thoughts are with Zack, Jeff, and the family.

I just found out about this today. Gary was a mentor to me as a staff RN at St. Vincent. I knew if I needed help with a pharmacy situation, Gary would help me. Such a huge loss.

Gary was a high school friend at Baker High. I just heard of his passing. He could run like the wind. Rest In Peace, old friend!

He was one the best ,smartest and most considerate people I ever worked for.
May your memory be a blessing for your family.

Gary, May you be free from sorrow and pain. I always treasured your friendship and kindness; your upbeat and positive nature; your sense of humor. You will be missed!

My thoughts and prayers are with you. Gary and I worked together in Portland. He worked to advanced quality and safety for patients. I will always hold him in deep appreciation for his commitment to excellence.

Thanks for your years of leadership and friendship and being my birthday buddy. You will be missed. Gerry

You were such a great boss that allowed me to explore and expand my career. You always had an open door and you'll be be missed so much by all the people you have touched. Annie

Sorry for your loss Lisa, stay strong.
