Not sure what to say?

I remember Gary's friendly helpfulness in his shop, his ever ready smile. I am thinking of you, Sue Vaughn, and knowing what you have done for him in recent years.

Gary- the patient alpine coach and easy going friend. Always waiting at the bottom of each practice run with a ready smile and positive advice. I think of Gary every time I am on the slopes, and know that I always will. Gary made the world a better place for all of us. My heart goes out to family and friends. Peace, friend.

Every trip to the Jericho sports shop was a pleasure. Just as his pictures show, there was always a ready smile and a positive outlook from this gentle man. His love of the outdoors and skiing ability were special attributes that he shared with so many.
His presence will be missed, but his unique character will not be forgotten. See you on the snow Gary.

My sympathy goes out to the family during your time of grief. May God's loving-kindness comfort you and help you through this difficult time. (Psalm 119:50,76)

My condolences to Gary's family. He was a wonderful companion, partner and friend to my mother, Carol. He meant a lot to all of her children.

So many skiing memories. They will last a lifetime and afterwards for us both. Jay Pedley

Don't believe that guy selling beer on TV, Gary Vaughn was THE most interesting man in the world. We are all less complete as a result of his passing. I miss our never-ending conversations and bushwhacking through the Jericho hills after eight new inches of pure white. Travel lightly, old friend.
