To Denise and the Delaney Family: My heartfelt sympathy to all of you. Gary was a great guy and always greeted me with a warm and genuine smile and he was real. Our last reunion we had a great talk and I invited him and Denise to visit my family in San Diego. I will remember his warm spirit and zest for life. R.I.P Gary I will miss you and cherish the good times in the 06002.

To Denise and all the Delaneys: Our deepest condolences and prayers are with you. I was so happy to reconnect with Gary at a BHS reunion a few years back where the twinkle in his eye brought back a flood of memories of how we roamed the woods, with Ronnie Hall, in back of our houses, and how we connected ourselves to the lifeblood of those woods, and its skies above. I would have loved to have worked in Alaska with him or done a few more things together beyond boyhood... but won't ever forget him, and the good guy he always was. May Gary's memory be 'as a blessing' for his family and friends!
From Tommy Rome and all of us Romes, your Next-Door-Neighbors
