It was a pleasure knowing Gary France, a hard worker who always set a good example. The room would light up with his presence and Jokes with his accent. Will miss you Gary. Rest in peace brother.

Brother and friend, mentor and model, Gary is someone I've always looked up to as a railroader and as one of the finest men I'll ever know. Thanks for everything and I hope you enjoyed the rest of your happy life. Hope you took it easy, as you said, like a herd o'turtles.
