Gary Lee Machan

I would like to extend my condolences to Gary's family and friends.
I met Gary 20 years ago, and we have stayed in touch over the years...I felt a need to reach out to him recently to touch base only to find that I was too late.
I was invited by Gary to join him at Sanoviv after his bypass surgery, which I did. You all will enjoy this - I found a huge dead rat on the veranda at Sanoviv...this extraordinary beautiful, clean place.
I go find Gary, show him the rat, and what does he...

Hey Walen: It's me, Baffo from the Gonzo Compadres, I will never forget our great times together on the steel stallions, sorry we couldn't have had at least one more. You were our fearless leader and will be sorely missed.

Our condolences to Gary's family. Although he was our cousin we didn't get to spend much time together after he moved to Utah with his parents many years ago. Sorry we didn't keep in touch as we should have. We wish you all well and know that Gary is in a better place and may he rest in peace.

Gary:

As one of your Gonzo Compadres (Bucko), I am really going to miss you, you son of a so and so. No one ever made me laugh or learn as much as you did buddy.

Just like Hunter Thompson, why did you have to go and die on me so soon.

I really loved you.

My best to your family.

I worked with Gary at Price in the mid '70s and enjoyed the camaraderie. Gary was often brilliant or seemingly out of control but always asset to the company. Our paths have crossed a dozen or more times in the past thirty years and each time, Gary has acted as if it had been only a couple of days since we had last talked.

To his family, you have our condolences.

To our peers, we have lost one of a kind.

Dear Mac and Jake,
I was saddened to hear of the death of your father. Clay, Whitney, and I have many great memories of Gary and your family. Thoughts of all of you and the fun you had together will remain with me always. My prayers are with you at this difficult time.
Love,
Nancy Greenhalgh

Gary was a good friend and added a special spark to life. He will be missed. Thanks for all the good times. Lee Burbidge

Machan Family - I am sadden by the news of your Father's passing. I had worked for him on and off over the years and I must admit even though we had our difference, we shared some great moments. On very rare occasions (usually on business trips to and from Provo or Kamas) he would confide in me some very personal feelings he had for each and everyone of you kids. He would express his regrets like most fathers in a manner most touching... without betraying his confidence, the bottomline was...
