Hello I remember I spoke to you on the phone asking would you shipped them pizza to Maryland or I would drive 500 miles just to experience the world famous pizza back in 2020 - you mentioned to me that Frank Pepe's is coming to Maryland soon. Thank you for sharing the family history and the family legacy still lives on to every Frank Pepe's Pizza. - Jamie C from Maryland

Our family are so sad to hear about Gary's passing. My Mother is Lorraine Bimonte, family was from line street. Gary and I always talked that we were related somewhere, some how. We shared a passion for old cars and animals. I miss his daily prayer and his big smile. When I retired we talked about me working for him somewhere. We wish your family the very best. We're certain the Pepe legacy will continue. Be well.

To the entire Bimonte / Pepe family. I am so sorry for your loss. Gary was a sweet man and I have meet him a few times at Frank Pepe's and I was a fan ever since. I sent him a text him back in early March and told him that I was coming out to see him in May. He said sure and I said ok, I can't wait to see you buddy. Life is to fast. May God rest his soul. He was such a kind man with a loving heart. I am so truly sorry for your loss. I will miss talking to you buddy.

I've known Gary since 1st grade when he sat at the desk in front of me. Neighbors growing up on the same street, we'd see each other pretty much every day. The one word that probably defined Gary best was DEDICATED! He was dedicated to family, church, friends, work, and community. Always. The other word that comes to mind is GRACIOUS. Gary never took for granted his good fortune and he showed great respect to each and every person he met. A very gracious man. Gonna miss you G!

We are shocked and saddened about Gary's sudden passing. He was a pillar in our neighborhood with a giant heart who will be deeply missed. We have fond memories of him driving up and down our street in his hot rod cars, plowing everybody's driveways with his quad after a snowstorm, his kind daily greetings on Facebook, and his random fireworks displays. He was a very generous man who would not hesitate to help support school fundraisers when neighborhood kids would knock on his door. Our sincerest condolences to the Bimonte family. May he rest peacefully in God's arms.

Condolences and prayers to the Pepe and Bimonte families. I was shocked and saddened to hear that Gary had passed away.
I grew up in the neighborhood and met Gary at Pepes in my early teens. I found that we both had a fondness for classic cars. Gary was a sweet guy with a good sense of humor. I miss the taste of Pepes pizza since moving away. It's hard to imagine Pepes without Gary being there. It's a sad time but I know he's in Heaven, probably showing the angels how to make a good pie.
RIP Gary.
