Not sure what to say?

I was friends with Gary and his brother as we were growing up in Georgia. We renewed our friendship when we moved to AZ.

I flew co-pilot for Gary many times in both the CV-580 and DC-9. He was a true gentleman and a pleasure to work with. Blue skies, Gary.

Just a reminder of the good times we shared when he flew for us, a good friend!

What we are feeling at this time is hard to put into words. Gary was a friend for over 55 years. We shared a lot of good times over the years. Our deepest condolences to Connie and family.

I had the pleasure of being Gary's co-pilot on both the Convair-580 and the DC-9 between 1978 and 1983 for several months. A great pilot and a great human being. Thanks for the insights!
