I have many fond memories of growing up with Gary. We hunted 'n fished every spare second that was possible. He was the best shot with any type of gun. I've seen him make some shots that no one would believe. Can't believe he's gone.

Our prayers are with you Gene and family. I have a fond but frighten memory of facing Gray during little league games, just waiting for the 3rd strike so I can walk back to the dugout!
