GARY WELCH

We miss you and love you .

I have his boat. Someday it will float again. The outboard engine will purrrr like a kitten. Gary told me it was a very good motor and worth more than the boat. I shall name the boat "The GW"

DR.WELCH WAS MY DENTIST FOR MANY YEARS.
HE HELPED CALM MY FEAR AND COULD MAKE ME
LAUGH DURING DENTAL PROCEDURES AND WOULD
WORK ON ME WITHOUT NOVACAINE PER MY REQUEST. HARD TO BELIEVE BUT TRUE.
I HAVE BEEN ILL THIS YEAR BUT THOUGHT OF DR. WELCH MANY TIMES
AND WANTED TO CONTACT HIM. SO SORRY I
DIDN'T BUT ON THIS ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY
OF HIS PASSING I WANTED TO CONVEY MY
SYMPATHY TO HIS FAMILY. WILL REMEMBER HIM
ESPECIALLY IN MY PRAYERS IN OCTOBER.
SINCERELY,...

Sharon & family,
I am so sorry to hear of the passing of Gary. I was his patient for 30+ years and was also in the Indian Princess program with Gary and his daughters. I was out of town and unable to attend his service. I knew from our conversations that he loved his family very much. May God be with you as you cope with his loss.

The Welch Family,
Sorry to hear of your loss. Dr Welch was one of a kind. I always loved his honest thoughts and opinions never holding back. Sharon, thanks for trying to keep him on time, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Dear Sharon and Family:

Gary always had some words of wisdom to share and had a way with words. Ken and I will miss talking to Gary. We are thinking of you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Sharon and Family:

I have known Gary and your family since we moved into the neighborhood back in 1982. I remember when you arranged a doubles tennis match as a way of everyone meeting each other.

I will miss those day to day conversations I had with Gary as we took breaks from our outside chores. I learned alot from Gary regarding house upkeep. I do not say goodby to Gary at this time. Rather, "Gary, I will see you later". We know that in the end, Gary had the...

When I think of Gary I think of Camray, PBS, figure skating, tooth fairy, 2 for 1, Menards, Current River in MO, smoked meat, whiskey sour, home improvements, fuel milage, deals or sales, drum & buggle corps, big bands, Johnny Carson, boating, St Louis, car repairs, Foxy the terrier, skunks under the porch, tree on the patio roof, birthday parties, shoes off at the door, and if you got something free flaunt it after the other guy paid for the same thing. He will be missed and life will be...
