Gary Confer

I just became aware of Gary´s passing. Gary and his brothers and sister Dawn grew up with us here in North Sea Beach before their family moved to Cali. We all grew up with one another during summers and loved every minute of time here together... Gary was a great kid!! As the youngest of three boys he certainly paid his dues!! Rest well Gary with all great warm memories North Sea!!?

Thinking of the Confer family this holiday season. Gary would be proud of you! In memory of my HS buddy Gary. Stuart Van Horn

Gary was one of the best of our high school graduating class of 1976. Gary was as accomplished as he was kind, talented and hard working. Our deepest heartfelt condolences to the Confer family.

Gary and I were HS friends and teammates. He was a special guy. I have many fond memories of Gary, including an epic spring break road trip with three others to Yosemite NP our senior year. He went off to college as I did but we reunited about 20 years ago. Recently, I had a feeling something was wrong as he had not replied to a Christmas text or a recent text. I last spoke with him in June 2022 after a fun visit with him in Austin. We met earlier while he was on a road trip with a friend, sometime in 2018 or 2019. We shared memories and good laughs. While I knew he had a health issue, I was shocked to read his obituary. I am deeply sorry I wasn´t aware of his passing until now. I offer my heartfelt condolences to his family, relatives, and siblings. While he may rest in peace, I will never forget about him. Attached is a photo of me (Stuart Van Horn) on the right and Gary´s HS football teammate Dan Collins. We just had lunch three days ago in Huntington Beach and fondly recalled fun days with Gary.

Gary and I were married for 20 years and friends for the next 20. In those years he was unwavering in his love, support and pride in his two sons. Matt and Greg are the legacy that will live on.
He is gone too soon, especially since he´d finally met the perfect soul mate in Judy!
Grief is the price we pay for love. A high price for sure but knowing him made it worth it. Love never dies.

Gary and I were married for 20 years and friends for the past 20 years. In all that time he was unwavering in his love and support of his boys. Matt and Greg are the legacy that will live on. His pride in them was boundless. Grief is the price we pay for love. A huge price but well worth the time shared. Love never dies.

Gary was the best father-in-law that anyone could ask for. He was always looking out for Matt, me, and the kids. And he was also concerned about our new house, as if it was his own. He was the one that we would call first if we needed help or had a question. I'm so sorry that Ethan and Ava didn't get more time with their grandpa. There is so much that I hoped they would learn from him and memories that I hoped they would share together. There is a huge hole in our lives without Gary and we miss him daily.
