For Gary, his family, and friends.
I was thinking about the great times I had in Omaha, and working with Gary.
I only know Gary a short time, and got to know him. I thought highly of him as the person I was able to know. I have not got as emotional, after hearing about his passing, ever. He was a great person.
As you can tell I have not forgotten Gary

Hello Gary,
This will make it the first time I have spoke to you, since you left all of us. When I had finally found out that you were gone, I couldn't believe it. Not "Our Gary", Spunky, Funky, Playful and Enthustiactic for Life GARY." Yes, they said it is True. I still can't believe it. My deepest thoughts & prayers went & still do go out to Venita & your kids. It goes to show that "God" does call on the good guys to come to him, because he called upon "YOU". Gary, I just wanted to tell you that your missed terribly, but you'll never be forgotten. I am happy though that I had the "Honor" of knowing and considering you to have and still be a "Great Friend". I'll cherish all the memories of "Good Times" all of us spent together "Riding,Partying and the Outrageously Wild Laugh Our Butts Off Partying Fun" we did in yours and Venita's garage, "Good Times, Hell Yes"!!! Well, "My Friend" I will say "Good-Bye" for now, but never "Forget YOU". You were and still are "One-Of-A-Kind"!!!!!!!
Your Loving Friend,
Freddie

Well brother its me... I haven't said anything for awhile so I thought I would say hello. Its hard to be so far away and not be able to go to your gravesite. I still can't believe I will never talk to you any more for the rest of my life... that's a long time. I sure wish we could have gone fishing or hunting one more time.
Well anyway I moved into my new house and I have your picture in my bedroom doorway right where I see you at the begining of each day and at the end of each day.
I know you never got to meet Gavin in person but he gives you kisses all the time on my tattoo.
My heart still aches but I guess that will never go away. Until we meet up on the otherside.
I miss u you big dummmmeeeee

The Broken Chain
We little knew that morning
God was going to call your name.
In life we loved you dearly.
In death we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you,
you did not go alone;
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
You left us peaceful memories,
Your love is still our guide;
And though we cannot see you,
you are always at ourside.
Our family is broken
and nothing seems the same,
But as as God calls us one by one,
the chain well link again.
Love you always your wife venita.

Well Gary another Christmas gone without you here by our side. The holidays will never be the same without you here. I could never forget the way that you always got so excited about buying all the gifts for the boys and Angie, I was just telling Josh about how you always made sure that the boys would have double of everything. If you bought a toy gun, you bought two, if you bought a gun case you bought two...everything one boy had the other one had the same thing. And Angie, you just spoiled her rotten. :) Josh was commenting on how she would be opening presents endlessly...I just laughed, cause that is just how it was with you around. You always wanted to make sure that they would never miss out on anything. I know you must get that from Mom. You were such a giving person. You are really missed alot and things will never be the same without you here in person. I know that you are with us in spirit. We will meet again my brother, my friend. I love you much...Amy

Hello Gary, Sure is the edge of all nights lately. But, I have to say that not a day goes by that all of us feel the emptiness that lingers on without you here. I know you are always looking upon everyone, so things really stay on key for the most part. Could you maybe say a little extra to the lord please, just give us a sign to remind us how sticking together here, will keep us together when we go there too! Thanks a bunch, and as always we'll be missing your smile until we meet again. Love from Marold T

I been telling him but i dont know if he listening to me.between John and I we have lost 4 people in less then 9 months. you were the hardest but GG is killing me to. how does a person lose a father and a grandma within 8 WEEKS of eachothier i dont understand but i guess its something i never will.I feel so sorry for John and his family i had the ringer off that night. i will never forgive myself for that. i should have learned that one with you. i am a total mess right now trying to be strong for everyone. if it wasnt for your sister Amy helping me out with my kids. i would be a bigger mess, no matter what. she always there for me. im thankful for that.

Be Still
Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.
Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.
If you are still this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

well its in the middle of the night.i just had a dream about you, about an hour ago. so now i cant sleep.its wierd how i never really dream about you this is maybe the 3rd time but when i do. i always think what does that mean. it was a crazy dream. you were looking at us shaking your head with that big grin on your face. we kept yelling your name. you wouldnt say nothing then you slowly faded away i wook up saying Gary come back, please come back, then i realized it was a dream then i started to cry, I miss you sooooo much, maybe that dream was to let us know that your akay.i dont know. i just know that sometimes dreams seem so real that you just want to hold on to them forever. exspecially when there about you. well im really sad now i think i need to try to go back to bed maybe i will come visit so i can tell ya about the whole dream i love ya sooo much

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

Well brother its been awhile since I wrote in your guestbook...I been missing you alot lately. Well I always do, but its been wearing on me lately. We had a nice cookout tonight at Venitas for Angies b-day. Just wish that you couldnt been there in person, I am sure that you were there in spirit. Its amazing how big your little girl is growing up. And your new baby granddaughter is so sweet, boy does she look like her daddy. Which also looks like you. I will be sure to pay a visit to your grave site soon. We all love you so much and miss you dearly. Rest in peace brother. Love Amy, Josh and Keegan
