I met Gary when I was about 14. Gary, kent & I buddied around Battle Creek trying to stay out of trouble. Did alot crusing downtown BC. Then Kent and I joined the Marine Corps in 69 . we never lost contact and Gary and I helped Kent build his and Wilma's dream home in Tenn.I'm totally heart broken to lose my buddy for so many years. I love you buddy. You'll be missed massively. Your friend for ever. Ron Schallhorn

I am so saddened by this tragic news. Gary and Colleen were so helpful and loving when I lost my sweet Brian suddenly, almost 5 years ago. My heart aches for Colleen as I know the void she's feeling. I pray for peace and comfort during this difficult time.

I have so many years of memories it's hard to pick a favorite but ones that made me smile every time were Gary with Tara, you could see the love they had for each other and his crazy gifts to Colleen were so fun, he put a lot of thought into those! I hope everyone can remember happier times with Gary and pray for healing.
