Gary has been in our lives for over 40 years. We felt happiness in his victories. We felt sadness in his defeats. We were often overwhelmed with his tireless energy, and his enthusiasm. We admired his strength, we were inspired by his endurance---and he never gave up his fight.
Gary was like a son to me and I'll miss him. We'll all miss him.
I love you Gary.
Be in peace---eternal peace.

Love,
Helen
(mother-in-law)
