Garry Dingler Obituary

Published by Legacy on Jul. 10, 2025.
We are saddened to share the passing of Georgia Racing Hall of Fame inductee Garry Dingler - a legendary engine builder, crew chief, and a humble force behind some of Georgia's greatest racing success stories.
Garry was preceded in death by his parents, Thomas Edward and Lorena Dingler and also his brother, John Dingler and sister, Eylane Dingler.
He is survived by his brother, Charlie Dingler and a large host of other relatives.
In lieu of flowers, the family respectfully request that donations be made to your local humane society in Garry's name.
For over five decades, Garry poured his passion into racing, helping shape the careers of several Hall of Fame inductees. His legacy lives on in every engine he built and every life he touched in the racing world.
