Becky and Connie, Debi and Marcy,
I was thinking of you all and wondered how you were all doing, then I saw Gary's name in the paper on the same day. I am sorry for your loss. I remember him always quiet and smiling. I was your neighbor on Newton Street growing up.

Dear Becky and Connie,
Uncle Gary was always good to the (4) of us. I can still see him coming home in his Air Force uniform looking so handsome. He was the Cats Meow!!!
When he was around us , we were always HAPPY. We wanted him to be our father. May you both find peace in his passing.
All my love, Kerry

For Gary's Family
I miss him already. Such a wonderful neighbor and a privilege to have known him. Yes, a bit old fashioned but that was one of the good qualities. Gary, I hope to see you and Betty again one day.
