Tina and family,
I have no words to express how very sorry we are that Gary has passed ! I know that there is nothing I can say or do to make this better for all of you but, I just wanted you all to know that we are thinking of you at this terrible time. He was the best coach that Robert ever had and I´m so glad to have that memory. Anything you need all you have to do is ask. Fly high, Gary and keep a watchful eye on your wonderful family!!!
Love,
The Hunt Family
