Narda,
I am so sorry to Hear of Gary’s passing. We used to go out with the 2 north 3-11 shift to celebrate our January Birthdays. There where 3 of us and we would start at Bennigins then off to the playpen. Also gave him his paperwork when he was a rehire as I worked in employee health. I just cannot imagine your sorrow. God Bless will keep you and family in my prayers. Michelle Hafler Osterberg

Gary was a teammate of mine in little league. I’ll always remember him as a nice person. Both Gary and Narda were colleagues of my daughter at JFK. And his dad was also a classmate with my mother back in Carteret. My condolences to the family. Rest in Gary.
