Dear Bonnie& Family:
Regretably we could not be there to provide you comfort but know that Uncle Gary has remained in our thoughts and you and family in our prayers. Words can not express the sorrow we feel. We have solace in knowing that Jesus is Lord.
Love, Rickey

Gary will be greatly missed. He was an honorable person and someone I was proud to call a friend for over 30 years. I know that one day I will see him again. It is now time to rest and bask in the presence of the Lord. Your friend- Vicki Snipes Thomas
