I love you dad and miss you every day. 8 months or less from now I turn 21. That will be 17 years without you. I hope you happy in heaven with family and pets.

Gary,
My brother - I love you. You are not gone forever - but for awhile. You have for the past 2 years especially been a big part of my life - I can't imagine you not being here. I will miss your laughter and stories but most of all your phone calls. When asked the one thing I remember most of all about you: You would have not only given the shirt off you own back to a total stranger in need...but you would insist on buttoning it up for them.
One day we'll meet again - until then - in my heart you'll always be.

Gary,

After all these years, I have just finally reunited with my family. I had just begun to get to know you through the reunion. I was so looking forward to seeing you again this June. I will miss you. My prayers are with the entire family through this time of sorrow. Peace be with you my friend.

Thanks for the memories. Hard to say a final goodbye. For now, you are just "away." We'll visit again and share laughter at the Big Reunion.
Your Cousin,

So sorry for your loss. Gary will be missed. I saw him every single day. He was always my first customer in the morning. He helped me out with things all the time, whether it be changing a keg or carrying things to the cooler for me when food orders came in. I don't think there was ever a day he didn't mention his daughter, or "the baby" as he referred to her. He was very proud of her. Melanie you are in my thoughts during this dificult time.
