I met your dad at Crossroads. He became one of my good friends. We talked about his wife, kids, gardening, and music. He always had a smile for me. I'm so thankful I got to get to know him. I will miss seeing him at the church.

Rest in Peace Mr. Lanoue you always made me feel welcome in your home and always had a smile and a hug or handshake whenever we would see each other. Thank you for some great memories that I will never forget!

We are so sorry to hear of Gary's passing. My husband would visit with Gary at Carrigan's and we enjoyed watching Gary and his friends play pool. A sweet and quiet man.

So many times dad said, Take it to Gary, "he can fix anything". My condolences to the family and friends.

We want to offer our sincere sympathy to your whole family. We met Gary at the Peoria Municipal Band Concert at Glen Oak Park about two years ago. We shared our love of music in the park. He was so friendly and we were always glad to see each other. We enjoyed visiting about family and what was going on in our lives. He brought a lot of joy to the lives of others.
We will miss him this Summer. May he Rest in Peace.
Sincerely, Marjory and Joe Mirande

We are so sorry to hear about your Dad, Gary. We met him at the Peoria Municipal Band Concert at Glen Oak Park about 2 years ago.
He was so friendly and always glad to see us. We sat together and
visited and got to know him. We did have a mutual friend who happened to be the Dad of our neighbor Johnny Ellis. We enjoyed hearing his stories and he was always interested in what was going on in our lives. We shared our love of music in the Park. We will miss him this Summer. Our sincere sympathy to the whole family.
May he rest in peace. Amen. Marjory and Joseph Mirande
