I will miss him. Tami, I am so sorry that your Dad has passed. I know you have alot of great memories that will help to give you comfort and peace.Traci, You are my best friend. You helped my sons and I through our lose 18 years ago, which I am forever grateful for your support. I know you and I talked about how hard it will be someday to lose a parent, but I never thought it would happen to you first.  It is difficult to know what to say or do for you except to let you know I love you and will always be here for you. I feel honored to have known your Dad.  I will keep all your family in my prayers. Love, Rae

THERE ARE SO MANY THINGS I WANT TO SAY ABOUT MY DAD. I AM SO PROUD TO HAVE BEEN HIS DAUGHTER. HE WAS THE PERFECT DAD. I LEARNED SO MUCH FROM HIM. HE HAD THIS AMAZING WAY TO ALWAYS MAKE YOU SMILE WITH HIS LITTLE JOKES HE WOULD ALWAYS DO. HIS SENSE OF HUMOR IS ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS I WILL MISS. I'M SO BLESSED TO HAVE SO MANY GREAT MEMORIES OF MY DAD. I MISS HIM SO MUCH AND WILL THINK OF HIM EVERYDAY.
THANK YOU AGAIN TO MY MOM AND AUNTIE JACKIE FOR TAKING SUCH GREAT CARE OF MY DAD. I KNOW HE'S UP IN HEAVEN SMILING DOWN, KNOWING THAT SO MANY PEOPLE LOVED HIM AND WERE THERE FOR HIM.

Gary was an amazing brother. Loving and full of fun. I feel blessed to have had the opportunity to spend the last 3 weeks of his life with him, Pat, Tami, and Traci. Those days were filled with laughter, tears, and respect for his amazing strength. I will always miss him!

Pat and family,
You are all in our hearts and prayers as you go throught this difficult time. All of our memories of Gary are with that beautiful smile on his face.
We love you

Our hearts go out to you at this time and in the days ahead. Gary always had a smile on his face and an interesting story to tell. He will be missed by many.

Dear Pat and Family,
I was shocked to see you at the funeral home tonite. I had come to see another dear friend who was across the aisle. I am so sad about the loss of your dear husband. I remember we talked about him when we worked together at Honeywell.
All of my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.

Pat,Tami and Traci, Mike and I were so sorry to hear of Gary's passing, please know we send our condolences with much admiration for Gary's struggle. I think whenever I see Gary in my mind he is laughing that gut-laugh of his with the giant smile that was always on his face. We hope each new day will be alittle easier for all of you than the last.

I worked for many years with Gary at Centerpoint. I will miss his great sense of humor. My heart goes out to the family at this difficult time.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Traci, Tami and Pat during this very difficult time. We know how much Traci's Dad meant to her as she spoke of him often. Peace be with you.

Gary was a wonderful brother and his passing will leave a huge void in our family. Our only comfort is that he got his wish to die at home with our sister Jackie taking great care of him. She was his angel and he was happy to the end and never lost his sense of humor. We will miss you dear brother till one day we will meet again. Patti, you and Tami and Traci are in our prayers. We love you very much and will always be there for you.

We are so sorry for your loss. We will always remember Gary up at the lake, it just won't be them same without him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to you at this very difficult time.

Pat and family, We are so sorry to hear about Gary. We are in PA, so won't be able to go to the funeral, our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

Has it really been 8 years since Gary retired from Minnegasco? Doesn't seem that long ago since he would call just to "chat" every few months. He left an indelible impression on all who met him and will always be remembered for his great sense of humor & optimism. Gary, your passing left a huge void in the hearts of all who knew you. May God bless your family and friends during this difficult time.

Gary was a wonderful brother, classmate and friend. We will always cherish the fond memories and remember his sense of humor. He set a high standard for his last days on earth. We thank Jackie for helping to make this possible and for all the wonderful care given to him.

Pat, I am so sorry to hear of Gary's untimely death. My heart goes out to you and your family.
