I can't express how sorry I am about this horrific loss. I have known Gary since he was a baby, and have watched him grow up into a very accomplished pastry chief and very handsome young man. He looked so much like Kevin Bacon. He had a smile that could win anybody over. That is one of the things that I will miss the most, that beautiful smile.

Gary and I shared bond. Whenever at any family gathering, Gary and I always took at least 10 minutes to ourselves to update each other on our lives, progress, highs and lows, ups and downs. I wish I could have done something to help Gary, and will miss him. It will not seem the same at any Fortin/Jacobson type gathering without him there.
