Worked with Gary during my times in NOrth Syracuse Jaycees on my projects and am glad to call him a true friend. I will be truly missed by all that had the pleasure to know him..

I'm sorry to learn of Gary's passing. I worked with him when he taught at BOCES. He really cared about the success of his students. Gary was certainly a good guy. My condolences to his family.

Our deepest sympathy to the Bennett Family on your loss. Gary was a great neighbor and friend. He always was there to help if needed and always had a smile and a big hello. He will be missed by all.

Gary was a kind and generous man whose laughter was the soundtrack of my Millen Drive childhood. He was not only Santa but also the mastermind of Plank Road Days, the Plank Road floats, and the Millen Drive block parties. He built his sled and other floats in heat waves and blizzards and never seemed to work without good humor. The word "jolly" was coined for him! May he rest in peace and may all you Bennetts find peace in your memories of your good, good father.

I have known Gary for many years. We worked together at Boces and we also partied at the Bowling Green in North Syracuse. He was always kind, funny & always willing to help me along with many others. Rest in peace. I will miss you.

I am so sorry for your loss. I remember Gary from the North Syracuse JC's which I was a member and past President.He was a great person in the North Syracuse Community.
