Gary was my friend ans favorite pipefitter at the plant. I was sad to hear of his passing. My the Lord keep his family in the palm of his hand and soften the pain that they must feel.

Phillip and Kimberly, I'm so sorry for the loss of your father. He was always my favorite uncle as a child. Always kind and smiling and interested in others. I envied the two of you for having a good dad. May God bless you through your grief. Please stay safe. All of my love to you.
