Not sure what to say?

Ann, I'm so sorry to hear that Gary passed away in July. It's now December and I just found out about his passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you, especially at this Christmas season. I love and miss you, Ann. My phone number has not changed if you still have it.

I know Gary, although I never met him. I have heard stories over and over again from Sandra Luce, his childhood neighbor and friend, about how she introduced Janet to her mother and that led to a lifelong friendship. The families purchased houses next to each other and did not have a fence in between the houses so the dogs and kids could run free between the backyards. Sandra remembers the game called "lines" they use to play often with Gary´s younger brother and sometimes her younger sister....

I am so sorry to hear of Gary´s passing. I grew up next door to him in Washington and for several years our families spent summers together in Cape May New Jersey. I had stayed in touch with his mother Janet who just passed away December 31 at 107. Both Gary and his mother will be missed

I am so sorry to read of Doc´s death. He & Ann were my neighbors when I lived in CrossRidge. He & I frequently had discussions about baseball. They were good neighbors & friends. May he rest in peace.
