My last memory of Gary was his attendance at the 25th reunion of our St. Frances Cabrini graduating class of 1974 in 1999 where he had that winsome smile I recall from our grade school years. His passing leaves a void. My condolences and sympathy to all his family. May you all feel God's comfort during this difficult time. Sincerely, Lois Weninger Gundrum
