Dear Jean and Family, my wife Helen and I offer our heart felt condolences on Gary's passing. I have known Gary since 5th grade in Nathan Hale. Through out the years our paths usually crossed and we would talk about this world we live in. He was often insightful and always interesting. Gary was one of the early members of the "Morris Cove Chapter of AARP". The last time I saw him was at Gary Jr's luncheon in December. I am so sorry you and the family are going through this emotional pain and loss again. He was a good man! I will miss him.
