I heard about Gary’s Passing from a text yesterday. I’m sorry for your loss. I haven’t seen him in a couple of years but I have many memories of Gary from Press-X-Press. I liked him and his family that I met. My thoughts are with you all at this time.

Gary was my uncle by his first wife, Mary. I have fond memories of Gary from when I was growing up. He was the only uncle who ever took me to any events. He took me to the races in Reading to see Joey Chitwood and to the old Hersheypark arena to watch the Bears play hockey. I will never forget it. He was a real family-oriented guy!
