So sorry to hear about the passing of "Mr. Gary". I worked down in the basement (or dungeon as we used to like to call it) at St. Bens. He was loved by all the kiddos and staff. My 2 year old daughter has been there since she was an infant, Mr. Gary is who showed her how to fist bump. Being in the basement next to his office, we had lots of conversations and I probably did bug him about needing different things done for my room a lot. My thoughts and prayers are with your family.
