My sincere condolences to Marilee, Brad, and Brent and to all of the Magg family over the loss of Gary. I first met Gary in 1975 when we worked together at Colfax Livestock Sales and he was a good friend to know. We drank several beers together over the years and I will miss seeing and talking with him at farm and livestock auctions and other places around Iowa.
