Gary, You will be so missed by your teammates here at BGE. I only worked with you a little over a year, but you became a friend I will not forget. You were a terrific listener, problem-solver and advisor. You gave sage advice and shared my love for music. I enjoyed sharing our love of music and recommending artists to listen too. I am glad you are free from pain and in paradise. Yours was a life well lived indeed. So glad our paths crossed. Godspeed to the other side. Peace and Grace.
