I am sorry to hear of this. My sincere condolences and prayers to your family. He was a great man! We met through church and worked together at Geico through numerous supervisory courses.

We are so sorry Barbara and all of his children. Gary was such a nice man and loved being neighbors and then attending Chancellor together. All of you are in our prayers as you go through the next days without him. Hugs to all of you! Steve & Nancy Jones

My husband Jeff and I were blessed to work with Gary at GEICO for many years. He was a joy to work with and a hard worker. Sending love and prayers to the family for healing. With God all things are possible. It is also my pleasure to now work with his son Dr. Eric Wright at Freedom Middle School. God bless you all.
