Mrs. Gary my heart breaks hearing of your passing. Everyone that had the blessing of knowing you and your family know what a special woman you were. May it be picking me up from school when I was sick, and letting me watch daytime TV in Barbie and Allison's bedroom or just being there to listen to me when I needed someone. You were a blessings to me and you made a huge difference in my life when I needed it the most. I love you Mrs. Gary and you will be missed.

Dear Gary Family,
We know your hearts must be broken right now. My family and I loved how special your Mom made every one feel the minute you saw her welcoming smile. Whether it was one of her after school fresh out of the oven cookies or getting your hair cut, she made everyone feel on top of the world! Take good care knowing she is by your Dad´s side watching down on all of you grinning with pride and love for the beautiful family she created.
RIP Marge! We´re gonna all miss you!
