Gary E. Walters

Funny how time works....I was just thinking about Gary and Richard (within the last 24 hours) remembering how much fun we had growing up together and then I get this email regarding Gary's passing 4 years ago now....so glad to have this medium to celebrate the gift of life Gary was given and how well he lived it.

Will always remember you Gary, a good friend with a good heart and wonderful sense of humor. And so much more.

Some of what follows has been said before but I feel it is worth saying again. I met Gary in the late 60´s when his family would visit my neighbor´s home. While much time has passed since we met, it´s my recollection that Gary´s father Vern, had a business relationship with my neighbor´s father and the two families were close friends as well. Both families socialized regularly allowing `the kids´ the opportunity to get to know one another and become friends. Being the next door neighbor and...

Hard to believe it's been a year since you went to that "BETER PLACE" keep your eyes open for a guy named Gregg who should be there soon and show him around. Tell everyone I said Hello and thank them for watching over those of us who are still in this place. Do they have drive in movies cause I miss the thrill of being smuggled into the Canoga Drive in Theater under the fold down back seat of a Chrysler Station Wagon. Those were the days my FRIEND. I'LL BE SEEING YOU some time but don't wait...

Just taking this moment to let family and friends of Gary know how special Gary was to me. Although Gary was a little older than me, we shared many light and happy days together in Laurel Canyon and in the Valley, memories that will never fade. All my best wishes go out to Gary's family (and to all who, like me ) miss Gary and Mel and Richard at this special time of year.

Our heart felt condolences! Gary had a such big heart! We always enjoyed seeing him and talking about life! He will truly be missed. Love and prayers from the Tucker Family

Our deep felt condolences! Gary had a giant heart! He was always so happy to see us, just as we were happy to see him and chat with him! We will truly miss him! Our hearts go out to his family! All our love and prayers to his family! The Tucker Family

Gary was my cousin although seemed like an uncle since we were 20 ???? Years apart. This is how I remember my cousin - Gary was a sweet soft spoken man that always made me feel special when I was around him. He was a calm soul but always seemed to be happy when I was around him even when I visited him at work ( a long time ago) I haven't seen him for years the last time I saw him was when I surprised him in Colorado Springs before work with my daughter Samantha when he was at rehab. He...

I'm so honored to have known both Gary & Melodie. Two beautiful people that are now resting in peace together. God Bless their souls
