Gary, I learned from you, that being born with a twin, one is blessed with a lifelong gift. You, my twin, were cetainly a joyous gift in life. I miss you, terribly. Ill never forget you saying that with keeping a secret, if you cant trust yourself, then who can you trust?. You are so right.

I will never forget our love and friendship that lasts now and forever. I have always been proud and thankful that Gary is my brother. And I look forward to seeing him soon. Amen,Glyn

I have not seen Gary in years, but was sad to hear of his passing. I knew Gary from grade school through AWC. He was always a good guy. My condolences to the Franks family. ~Alfonso Ramirez~ Yuma AZ

Dear Brother, Your life was so filled with adventure and there was always something of value to learn from your stories. One of your anecdote was, "if you can't trust yourself with a secret, then don't expect anyone else to". All your life you were so kind and helpful to friends and strangers. In caring for you during your last days, no moment was lost with every second precious. Thank goodness I had that with you. It was a blessed gift having you as my brother, my twin, my lifelong friend....
