I was one of Gary's grade school classmates and after 6th grade we lost touch with each other but when I would run into him he always greeted me like we had just seen each other the day before. I can still remember the first time I saw him in his clown outfit at the top of High and Main just out waving to the kids and making them happy that was the person he was out to make others happy. he will be missed by so many,but he is with the Lord now. So R.I.P. old friend.

Gary was a good and kind man. He welcomed me to the Shaw family before I ever married his sister, Brenda. We would have great conversations, and could always share some great stories. Our mutual love for all history and politics could always make me anticipate a visit.
Gary, you fought the good fight, and now the race is over. You will be missed. Yet we are strengthened by the fact that you will now be sharing your stories in the Presence of the Lord.

Among other talents Gary Shaw had the greatest " Wolf Call " of all time. I remember him letting it rip while playing defense in football games in Jr High. The opposing players in the huddle would be so distracted it wold be hilarious just to watch them looking around. More than once their coaches would call a time out to try to figure out what was going on! Gary was a wonderful person and he will be greatly missed by his Fisher Catolic Class of 75 Classmates. If heaven is ever short a wolf for any reason Gary can fill in no problem!
