We are so sorry for your loss. Gary was such a sweet guy and always had a smile. Greg and I will always remember him fondly and how he joined us in celebration of our first child. Our deepest condolences to his family and friends.

We weren´t around when Gary was born but I can remember him limping down the stairs after injuring his knee in a football game saying he couldn´t just lay around. He had to get it better so he could play football as soon as possible. He was the baby of our family and it seems impossible that he has been called to a better place at such a young age.
