My big brother, Gary, was one of the most charismatic, handsome and amazing men I have ever known. His smile was infectious and people instantly fell in love with him. I will always remember the adventurous side of Gary. He's the one who introduced me to mountain biking, downhill skiing and water skiing. His memory will live in my heart forever.
