I will remember Uncle Gary for the most precious gifts he has given to me....my cousins Regina, Gary and Josh. He has given me family and I will alway think of him kindly and see him through his handsome sons and his beautiful daughter. All My Love Anne M. Mailing

G Daddy, You were a true friend/brother to me. The laughter we shared was enormous. Dressing up during Mardi Gras, Halloween and any other excuse we could find created some priceless moments. All the parties, seafood boils, Friday night dinners, Texas-Hold-Em tournaments, Chiminea Nights, Kids ball games, coaching together and against one another at the playground, Saints parties, etc. You, Brad Girault and I were inseparable and you are both still in my heart.
I remember all the...

Paw paw you will live on in our hearts.

We love you.

When I first came around almost 19 years ago Billy would bring me to some family gatherings. When I say family gatherings, I mean Uncle Gary and Aunt Suzie's "seafood boils". Being I didnt really know any one, I would stand quietly. Uncle Gary would pull me up a chair, pour me a heaping pile of seafood and talk to me for hours while i enjoyed the best seafood my taste buds had ever encountered. He made sure I was comforatable and that I never left hungry.This kindness never seized thru the...

Have mercy and be gracious unto me O Lord, for I am in trouble; with grief my eye is weakened, also my inner self and my body Psalms 31-9
