To Kathy, Cindy and Scott
I am so sorry for your loss. You all had a long battle with Gary's disease and each of has lost a little piece of yourselves. Knowing Gary is at peace, pain free and probably driving a big rig around the universe should give you the peace you are so hoping to find.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of loss and sorrow.

May God's Peace be yours in your time of need.
Jesus said: "In my father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, I would have told you." And before leaving this Earth, he also said: "I go to prepare a place for you."
May you find comfort in knowing that he is in that place now and is experiencing complete joy and is free from suffering.
