A good man .. that's for sure !
I miss the days in the 1970s when YOU, Dennis H., Robert H., Bill G., Bill W. and myself all lived in that old farmhouse on Fall Hill.

So many memories of our high school years. Rip Gary

I am so sorry to hear this news. I found out Saturday-and just found out this evening that his funeral was today. I certainly would have attended his funeral or his calling hours. I am so sorry I missed it. I really loved Gary. He was such a cool man. May he RIP! Love, Skinny

My deepest sympathy to all of Gary's family and friends. I loved Gary We'll had many many great times together and a million laughs. He will be missed. May he R.I.P.

Ken and families, Deepest condolences over the loss of your brother,Gary. I'm sure that your parents were pleased that he followed in your dad's 'foot-steps' driving trucks. I remember your family well back in the early 60's and Gary was probably the 'little-squirt' that I remember. God's blessings to all !

So sorry for your loss. Gary and I were cousins. His dad and my mom were brother and sister. They always came out to the house on Sundays and my brothers Don, Charlie and Steve and me would play games outside while the others chatted inside. I seen Gary when Aunt Betty passed. I would take her out to dinner when I returned from the south for the summer. May you find peace in knowing he is with his mom and dad once again If you get a chance I would love to stay in touch. I know...
