I'll never forget the first time I met Gary.
It was way back in 1979. It was a Saturday morning and I was staying in my camper at Brainerd International Raceway. I woke up and the first thing I noticed was his rat bike parked outside door. We talked about my camper and how he had to change the oil in his bike.
He said, get on! I hoped on the back of his bike andaway we went. I remember him mixing us orange juice and vodka afterwards in a plastic tub because I didn't have anything better in the camper. I started calling him big buddy' that day. Took weeks before I figured out his real name.
He was always so vibrant and seemed larger than life. I know I'll miss him and all the times we spent together. My sympathies to the whole family and to anyone else who knew him.
Peace out Big Buddy.

Our sympathy to the entire Frankot family. My earliest memory of Gary was back in about 1963 while playing wiffleball in Pete and Mary's back yard on Seminole Ave. Gary was probably only about 8 years old and wanted to play ball with his cousins, Dave and Dan along with their Seminole friends, John Williams, Ralph Jeckel and myself Dean Franke. Gary learned quickly and became a good player of the numerous games played during that time period. I specifically remember Gary as having a kind and caring personality as a child which continued into his teenager and adulthood years. Gary and I last saw each other about 6 years ago at which time we talked about our experiences raising our kids in which the both of us were in our 40's when they were born. Based on our discussion, I knew right then that Gary, who I would have expected, was a very good father to his son. I like to remember people based on how they made me feel when I was around them. I will always remember Gary for being very hospitable, a pleasure to be with, and I am glad to have known him.
