To all of Gary's friends and relatives,
I haven't seen Gary in a few years, the last time was at the YMCA. I went to elementary school with him. He was always so funny. every now and then I would run into him at the boys and girls club when he'd be picking Erica up and I would pick up my boys.I'm very sorry for everyone's loss.My sympathy to all.

Jeannie, I am so sorry to hear about Gary's death. I caught up with him, after many years, a few months after he married you. He told me how happy he was to finally find his true soul-mate. He told me that you were his everything and how Bill sent you to be together, and how horrible his past was it was thanks to Bill that he met you! Gary absolutely adored you---he said you were truly his first and only. I know you understand. I am so very sorry for your loss, but knowing Gary--he is...

To the Poland family, I worked with Gary at the Springfield YMCA. He was an inspiration to his class participants as well our instructor team. I just found out about his passing and am truly sorry for your loss. He was an angel on earth who has returned to heaven to watch over those he loved from above. Cherish the memories you have. He will always be with you in your hearts.

Jeannie and Emma, we are so sorry for your loss. As long-time friends of Gary's we know how much he loved, adored and appreciated you; he talked about you all the time and wished he met you 20 years ago. May God bless you and your family.

Thank you to everyone who has wrote in my fathers guest book, to know that everyone took the time to come write something nice is wonderful. Thanks again

Jeannie and girls

I am deeply sorry for your loss. I read your story on the forum when Gary was first taken ill, it was so moving. One could tell you both were meant and were very blessed to have each other. I was on the forum today and saw the memory website. Words cannot explain how I felt. Just know that Gary is in at peace and will be watching over all three of his girls. There are no words that anyone can say to make it easier, but it does in time. Gary will be forever in...
