Garry was an amazing human being. It was reflected in the compassion and support he provided for others less fortunate and his warm sense of humor. He will be missed.

Hello

My condolences to the Mendez family. I met Garry while in a Fellowship program at University of Illinois at Chicago. Garry demonstrated a level of intellect and compassion for social justice that made me proud to be in his company. A great spirit and great soul. Thank you for sharing him with us. May his work continue to produce the gifts he so generously share and passion and zest. I will never forget his laugh.
