I am proud to have known Gary as my father in law. We shared the same birthdate, and the love of his daughter and my wife Kristy. He set the standard for me to strive for as the man of her love and respect. Gary was a community leader and very involved in my wife´s sporting activities when she was growing up; coaching her in sports and in her life. His entire family will miss him very much, but he will live on in our hearts and memories.
