I am shocked to hear this sad news.
I only worked with Gary a short time, when he became Midnight Lt. Gary was considerate, professional and some one that I thought of as a friend.

I'd like to extend my sympathy to you all. Although I only knew Gary from dealing with him at work, he ALWAYS came across as a gentleman and great guy who always seemed topside.Not once did he ever complain or whine about his illness in my presence. He was also very generous in letting me scavange a few parts for my Lumina.
I will miss him greatly.
