Dear Susan:
I just wanted to express my sympathy to you and your family. I was so sorry to learn of Gary's illness and death.
I had the pleasure of working with Gary on several projects while he was at Ballinger and found him to always be thoughtful, conscientious and thorough. He will be greatly missed by his professional colleagues.

Susan, Ian and Adam;
As you know Gary was an important person to so many people. Although a quiet man, he had volumes to say. It's the smile though that really stands out. We are so sorry for your loss and know that Gary will always be one of your lifes most significant people.

Dear Susan, Please accept Linda's and my condolences. We met Gary back at the City Planning Commission in the '70s and got a chance to work together again at Ballinger in the '90s. We will miss him!
