Dear Gary, This is not goodbye, for your memory will live with us always, and your music will be alive for those musicians coming after you, for the enjoyment of listeners and for students who will learn from your work. For all your adult years, from teen-age onward, you had a dream-to have a big band of your own. It was a passion which you pursued with determination and enthusiasm.

Gary was a kind man who always showed a genuine interest in our family.

Gary, you have my word to raise up Evan (and Julia) with support from our family to them when the waves of grief creep up on them. We will continue the foundation of love you have built for your family...

Gary was my father, role model and best friend. I have countless memories to share like being in Central Park playing soccer with people from around the world or checking out music and art on a Saturday evening in NYC, he showed me how to just have fun and to follow what makes you happy. That same direction continued on until he left this earth and is something I will cherish forever. His impact on my life is something I will hold dear. His kind gestures of loving and support kept me...
