Not sure what to say?

Gary was talented and engaging and a good friend and colleague. Karen and I spent a lot of time with Marty and Gary and their kids on Tesla Drive during the years we were in Colorado Springs (1978 - 1982). Marty was the realtor that sold us our house. I think of Gary often. He was so resourceful he could make something out of nothing. I have and cherish a piece Gary helped me whittle over a campfire in South Park. Wonderful memories. Condolences to the family. Gary was a wonderful man!

We at The Home Front Cares appreciate all donations in memory of Gary. We will utilize the funds with the utmost discretion and honor to assist Colorado veterans and military families. Blessings to the Gaines Family from THFC Board & Staff.

To all the Gaines family I extend my deepest sympathy. I always enjoyed spending time with your father/grandfather.

My sincere condolences to the family for the loss of your loved one. May prayers strengthen you and memories comfort you, and may our Lord Jesus Christ and God our Father, who loves us, comfort your hearts and "make you firm". (2 Thessalonians 2:16, 17)

We will miss you, dear friend.

A good friend playing cards and got me into wood whittling and loved our Bratwurst we bought from North Dakota.
