Barb,
I just heard of Gary's promotion a few minutes ago and want you to know how much I loved and respected him, as a peer and also as a personal friend.

Barb and family,
I was deeply saddened to hear of Gary's passing. I was a shipmate in the Naval Reserve with him for many years and I highly respected him for all his great attributes. He will be missed. CAPT W. Gary Johnson

I have the fondest memories of Gary. We grew up together in Mt. Vernon, graduated from MVHS in 1964 and we both entered the Navy at the same time.
During those years, I had the pleasure of knowing his entire family, spending time in their home, on Comano Island, and smelt raking,etc.
While we could not attend the services, we were with Gary, his family and friends.

I had the great pleasure of working with Gary Iverson at Allstate. So sorry to hear of his passing to a man with so much young energy and passion. Some fun memories of Conference trips and Gary's creative ways to have some fun in the insurance industry! Many thoughts to Gary's family. Dave Coghill.
