Pat and family,
We were so shocked to learn of the passing of Gary. He truly was a Great friend. Always there willing to help out in any way that he could and never expecting anything in return. We sure will miss his smiling face and the visits when we come in to T & D. You and your family have our deepest sympathy.
Love Rick & Beth Flagg
