I served with Gary on the USS Thomas Edison in the 70's. We were good friends and neighbors. (I'm from Tribes Hill, NY} I just saw this obituary. Very sad to hear of his passing. My condolences to his family and friends.

To Bonnie, Gary´s family and close friends. In our teen years Gary´s soft spoken and relaxed demeanor influenced my life a great deal. Over the years I lost contact with my friend but remembered the lessons I had learned from him often. I will mourn him. I will also grieve the emotional pain that you all will endure. God bless you all and may Gary rest in piece after a life well lived.
