Gary Wade McKeown

Wow it has been a year. Gary was a great soul. I talked to him on the phone for work and we got to know each other enough to know we both liked to cook and we shared stories of meals with family and favorite meals and recipes. He told me his love of rescuing animals. He was a great person and truly missed. I was thinking of him the other day. It was sad to hear of his passing. I had just talked to him a few days prior to his passing. But when you are called to go home, you do. I have no doubt Gary is in heaven doing his part in saving animals from up there and looking over all his loved ones.

Dear Family of Gary -
I only worked with him a hand full of times and it was either with IMs or phone calls. I could tell he was a great person. We would work on the issues he needed fixed in our TEAM software and then we would talk personal and usually about recipes that we would share from our grandmother's or in his case really much older recipes from his ancestors. I could tell he loved his family very much and he was a very kind person. He will be missed by all of us at CommonSpirit. My heart goes out to your family and I pray that you receive comfort in this time of loss from our lord and Savior. Many blessings to you and your family.
