Not sure what to say?

We met Gary & Jill on a cruise to Hawaii in 2005 and became fast friends over dinner that 1st night. Gary had a great sense of humor. A real straight shooter. We'll always treasure the memories. God bless you Gary

One would say, that only the good die young. Gary lived a full and fun but hard working life. He will me missed. At times it was hard to tell if he was joking with me or serious. Jill kept him happy and looked after him, even when he did not. Take care.

A brilliant, humorous, hard worker, family and community man! May the family and friends grief be lessened by the many great laughs and positive memories he helped create for all who were fortunate to know Gary!

Through the years in both the Pioneers and VLN Antique Auto Club we did lots together, and he was one you could always depend on. A good friend who will be missed by the entire community.

Dear Jill,
I met you in the Cancer Treatment Center last month with your honey. You didn't have enough time with this tender-hearted bear! My prayers are with you and your family.
Count your blessings and treasure the memories of the time you did have. God bless you.
Cherie Kellly, Stephen Ministry and high school friend of your husband.

We were shocked to hear of Gary's passing. He was a very good buddy of mine (Dianne's) since about 7th grade and in junior high we used to ice skate to the tune "Peggy Sue" and others at the ice rink down by where the the Minnie Street Bridge went in. We all used to go snow machining as soon as the road closed between Fairbanks and Circle Hot Springs. When we moved to Hawaii, they were known as the "Raspberry Jam Express". They would bring us a case of the Nabob one pound cans and I would...

I didn,t know Gary well, only met him a few times through the plumbers union but I remember him. I was a friend and co-worker of his son Chris who would occasionally bring that 55 Chevy to work, probably on the sly when Gary was out of town. Just wanted to say that I always enjoyed talking with the guy. He was a light bulb in a room, always happy and smiling. We're sorry for your loss Chris. John&Sally Sweetman, Mission Viejo, CA
