Time doesn't make it easier, It gets harder everyday. I pray everyday that I'm gonna wake up to the sound of you yelling at me for not straightening up the living room or doing the dishes before I went to bed! I love you and miss you more than you could ever imagine! Rest peacefully Daddy & Keep me safe<3

My thoughts and prayer are with you all on the loss of your beloved father and son. He was such a great guy and will always hold a special place in my heart.

He will live on forever in our memories of times we shared with him. Gary...you are finally at peace. Fly high my friend.
