Gary W. Saunders

Lorri and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I really liked Gary and his family. I remember having a long discussion where he related fascinating history about the Waterford Country School and his family's direct ties to that wonderful program. I was amazed beyond belief that I was in the presence of a man with such a direct link to such a significant mission right here in Waterford. He was always very friendly and had a warm charisma that immediately earned the friendship, trust, and respect of anyone who had the good fortune to meet him.

gary would take up a whole chapter in my avaition career, a good friend and boss at coastal,many happy memories on nankucket,rest in peace big man, shamrock

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Lori, I am not good with words but my sympathy goes out to you and your daughter
Love Howard and Edee

To the Saunders Family
Gary was an example of the people who have "made" the aviation industry. He will be missed.

Hugs to both of you. I am sad for your family and wish you all the strength you need right now.

Lorri and Casey, Jim and I were shocked and saddened to hear of Gary's passing. He was a wonderful mentor for our son Jesse in his passion for aviation. We wish you both peace in comfort as hard as it may be to find at this time. He touched so many lives. Cathy and Jim Elliott

Dear Cousins Lorrie and Casey,

I am so sorry for the loss of your loving Gary! What a man he was, and still is in your hearts. Though we never became as close as I would have liked, I know that we could easily have become best friends over these years. I very much remember him helping me try to find a corporate flying job when National Airlines went out of business. He called around and we talked many times about many things, including helping me. We also shared that passion...
