The Palmer Golf Course will never see his Big Bertha hit another 240 yard drive from the Tee; the trout of Finger Lake can rest a little easier; Ugak Bay, Kodiak, will never see his Boston Whaler fishing for its big halibut again. Gary Bertram LaRose has taken his final voyage to his next fishing...

I always enjoyed time spent with Gary when he was down visiting here in the Sacramento area. He was a man of few words, but always had a sly smile and a twinkle in his eye.
Like Rosemary he will be sorely missed!

We didn't get to meet Gary until late in his life, but he was full of it! (Life, I mean) Great Fisherman, and good friend. He will be missed...

My heart goes out to all who knew Mr. LaRose. I met him in passing many years ago, but actually chatted with him and his lovely wife, Rosemary, at a shared Thanksgiving dinner at his son's, Gary's, home as a guest of his granddaughter, Sonya. I enjoyed our conversation and am saddened that there won't be more. I feel blessed to have met both him and Rosemary. I truly know their passing was a loss to many. They were two delightful people on their own, but together.... they were quite the pair....

As a former Alaskan game warden on the Alaska Peninsula I spent a lot of time with Gary near and around Pumice Creek. He was an honest, hard working big game guide and well respected. It seemed like he always had time to share stories and knowledge. R.I.P. Gary

There are no appropriate words, sayings, verses. There is nothing that can be said, written or done to properly describe this beautiful man.
I am so very grateful that I got to spend some time with him on the Peninsula (over 4 moose seasons) as I attempted to follow the foot steps of his beautiful wife, Rosemary. Oh, the stories he could tell!!!
My love and condolences are extended to the entire family and many friends he leaves behind. We are all left with millions of...

My deepest condolences to the family. There are no words that I can express to you that can ease the sorrow of losing someone so beloved. May reflecting on all the good times you've shared together help ease the pain you now feel. Please know that God cares for you and he will give you strength that you need to endure this difficult time. (1 Peter 5:6,7)
