I am so saddened to lose Gary. I have such great memories from scouting years, church, his friendship with my older brother Wayne, and of course our love for everything "retro". Our love and prayers of comfort to you all.

When I was a young boy scout in Troop 236 (First Baptist Church, Independence), Gary was one of the adult leaders. I remember his humor and liking his knowledge of cars. He helped me complete my Eagle project. Every know and then his name comes up when I talk to my Dad and brother about those days. Please know that Gary made an impact on the lives of the boys in the scout troop. I'm very sorry for your loss.

Nancy,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. Since we are unable to attend the service for Gary we wanted you to know that we will keep you in our prayers. This is especially meaningful to Jean because she lost her husband 38 years ago in the same way. But she says when you are a rider it is in the blood, a true love. We will miss Gary too, as we know many will.
May God Bless and Comfort you as you carry on without Gary.
Spark Needham and Jean Libby
