Wonderful and treasured memories of my life long friend. We went through school together--Kindergarten, Elementary, Junior High, and High School. We were in "Cub Scouts"together. His Mother was our den mother. I stayed overnight at their home many times. I went to visit him on his last days. A True Friend. I miss him. I pray for him. May he rest in Peace.---Mike Ramirez-class of 53

We called him Uncle Puss. He was a best friend to my father, "Corky" Mel Meacham. He was actually at my engagement dinner in 1987. That was the last time I saw him. I was very young when My parents and Puss and Ann hung out. The memories lived on forever. My dad passed in 1987 and my mother in 2015. Such great memories. May they all rest in peace.

our, deepest sympathy to the Giddings family. I worked with him a few times and being around Gary on a job , was never dull!!! Gary was an excellent Surveyor and because of him a lot of apprentice's ,my self included , turned out to be better hands by learning from Gary.

Gary was so good to my husband Gerald Wedel in his last days on earth. Gary was always at Jerry bedside in the hospital or nursing facility. I really appreciated the time he gave to sitting with Jerry and Jerry loved it. They had grown up together and were good friends till the end. I only wish I had been there for Gary when he was ill. I pray that his wife and sons, can remember all the good times as his classmates at Wasco High School enjoyed their relationships with all the class mates...

Hi Donna: I wrote an essay as a memorial to Gary. Please send me your email or snail mail address and I will send it to you. I'm sorry that Gary never got to read it. Gary and I were much more than just friends. He was like my Brother....Hank Webb

Rest in Peace my life long dear friend. God has you in his arms. I will cherish our memories.
