Not sure what to say?

Was cleaning out my closet and an envelope fell and it was from Gary, a zillion years ago. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. We were close in high school, until my parent moved to California and we lost touch. He was friendly with Michael Allan James at the time, as we all kind of hung out. Please feel free to reach out to me at my Public Relations office. My office is 310.441.1000, if you would like. I would find that so wonderful, as I would love to catch up on his life.

Warmly,

I was so shocked to hear of Gary's passing. Very special friend to me when I was the dress buyer at Talbot's. Great man to do business with, true class act. Spoke to him a couple of yrs ago and told me had a son named Scott, so proud of his girls and now a son. Denise we never met, but he was so proud of you and spoke with love in his eyes. My deepest sympathy to you and your children. May the love of God surround you all.
Sincerely, Suzanne Pixler-Kelley.
