I'm so very sorry to hear that Gary is gone. What a good guy. I remember him helping to train my dog around guns. His hearty laugh and easy humor, signs of a quality man. Condolences to all of the family

We will always remember your gentle and kind ways, Gary. You were a wonderful and loving friend. You gave back to those you knew in so many ways. We can hear your hearty laugh as you rest in the arms of Jesus. Love you man!
Judy and Jim, you are the best. He loved and appreciated you both so much.
