I will miss my friend Gary so much. I´ll miss our political discussions and reminiscing about Bob and mutual high school friends. He was faithful to check in on me after Bob´s passing and that meant so very much to me. Gary was a generous host when we visited him in Colorado and California. May his memory be a blessing to his family and closest friends.

So very sad to learn of Gary's passing. We shared a great friendship when we all lived in Dayton. He was always such a kind and loving person. Sending love to his sister Marcia Weaver and all of Gary's family. Bob and Alma Weaver are remembered too . They all have a piece of my heart.
