Gary Richard Jinks

Dear friend, No amount of time erases the great memories of times shared on stage, in the studio, and with family and friends. The energy was positive, and always left us thirsty for more. Here's to you, and the seeds you planted for us. Godspeed my rock brother! Neil

Forever grateful for the time spent with Gary and the entire musical entourage over time. Friendships, memories, and musical accomplishments will be cherished forever. Miss you dearly, you big lug!!!

I think of you often, my dear friend. You visit me in my dreams, and let me know you are still very much with us. I can never thank you enough for the greatest gift of all - the connecting of a wonderful group of people (family, says it better) who remain good friends today. The importance of this legacy can not be understated. Thank you and rock on "For All Eternity..."

My Deepest sympathy to all of Gary's immediate family. Like Jim Neff, I knew "wild & crazy" Gary in the 60's and 70's when I played keyboards in Boot Hill. In my eyes, he was a true musician and a bit of a genius. I can close my eyes and hear his FISH cheer from Country Joe. May the force be with you wherever you go.

Dear Marilyn & William,
Bob & I were so sad to hear such news. He was a tremendous musical force. He was in his element when composing, playing or directing a session. There are many people that will miss him. Please know that if you need anything, please do not hesitate to call us.
Love you both.
Marge & Bob

I've had the most interesting week, pondering the days of Decadence, and the creative individuals I worked with, especially Gary, our leader.
You were in your mid 20s then, and already equipped with a repetoire of original lyrics that would put many a musician to shame.
Even if you were to pour out half the amount of passion, creativity and stage presence before and after the time that I knew you, you've lived a thousand lives, my friend.
Godspeed, Gary.
My sincere...

Dear Marilyn & Will, Mr. & Mrs. Jinks, Mike and Monica - For all of you his closest family, my deepest sympathy and prayers go out to you in this very difficult of times. Over the years Gary became a dear friend to me. He was larger than life and through his enthusiasm and vision he brought reality to unimaginable musical projects. He pushed us to new individual limits. He was both teacher and coach. He believed in abilities we didn't even know we had. I will miss him greatly, his voice, his...

To Marilyn and William,
I look at you both as family. Sandy, Roxanne, and I love you both. We are always here, always near. Will, if you ever want to jam - call me! If you need help with equipment - call me! Anything at all. Mar, never hesitate to call us -for anything. All of our love and sympathies,
The Keenan's

My Teacher, My Brother, I owe you everything. Thanks for all the guidance, patience, and friendship over the years in all of our musical endeavors. I will always be grateful. And God willing, we will carry on with your spiritual guidance, the dreams that are yet unfinished. Peace my friend, and Godspeed.
